{"product_id":"hope-glory-1","title":"Hope \u0026 Glory","description":"'So deliciously South London.' - Yomi Adegoke, author of SLAY IN YOUR LANE\n\n'A sweeping, rich tale that explores family, secrets, loss, love and redemption within the context of a tessellation of cultures - written with a beautiful texture, Benson pulls you in to a deftly-woven story with tautly-written sentences, and before you know it you find yourself in too deep to get out, too deep to want to get out, wanting to know more.'\n- Bolu Babalola, author of LOVE IN COLOUR\n\n'Jendella Benson has drawn such a compelling world that Hope and Glory, the book and the characters themselves, stayed with me long after I'd turned the final pages.' - Candice Carty-Williams, author of QUEENIE\n\nGlory arrives back in Peckham, from her seemingly-glamorous life in LA, to mourn the sudden death of her father, and finds her previously-close family has fallen apart in her absence. Her brother, Victor, has been jailed; her sister, Faith, appears to have lost her independence and ambition; and their mother, Celeste, is headed towards a breakdown. Glory is thrown by their disarray, and rather than returning to America she decides to stay and try to bring them all together again. However, when she unearths a huge family secret, Glory risks losing everyone she truly cares about in her pursuit of the truth.\n\nHOPE AND GLORY is a rich, heart-warming story of loss, love and family chaos, and marks an exciting new voice in fiction.","brand":"Trapeze","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40697677414485,"sku":"9781398702318N","price":11.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2481\/5790\/files\/ff5f795d-6a21-4e36-8cbd-aed8a7c4d322.jpg?v=1696000136","url":"https:\/\/smeikalbooks.co.uk\/en-us\/products\/hope-glory-1","provider":"smeikalbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
