In Hogan’s forthcoming novel, The Wisdom of Sally Red Shoes, her protagonist overcomes grief at the loss of her child with the help of people she meets and befriends. It’s perhaps unsurprising that in our increasingly busy and fragmented lives we are attracted to novels in which strangers demonstrate compassion. I write what I’d like to happen.” Up lit isn’t simply sugar-coating the world, says Rachel Joyce: 'It's about about facing devastation, cruelty, hardship' Set in 1970s English suburbia and filled with tenderness, companionship and nostalgia, it is, according to former NHS psychiatrist Cannon, an exercise in wish fulfilment: “I write about communities, kindness and people coming together because that’s the society I wish for. The novel – which went on to become a bestseller in both hardback and paperback – centres on 10-year-old Tilly and her best friend, Grace, endeavouring to uncover the whereabouts of their missing neighbour. ![]() Up lit arguably took off two years ago with the publication of Cannon’s debut The Trouble with Goats and Sheep. ![]()
