Its story of depression and death on the small Welsh island of Môn, of people armed with every social media completely failing to communicate, is far, far funnier than it has any right to be. It's also, ultimately, extremely moving. An incredible debut novel from a truly unique prose stylist.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn English Literature graduate of Manchester University and LJMU's Writing MA, \u003cb\u003eRichard Owain Roberts\u003c\/b\u003e' debut short fiction collection, \u003ci\u003eAll The Places We Lived\u003c\/i\u003e, was published by Parthian Books in 2015 and he is the subject of the forthcoming film \u003ci\u003eULTRA\u003c\/i\u003e: a documentary covering the promotional tour for the collection's Serbian translation.
