WINNER: ZEFFIRELLIS, LAKELAND BOOK OF THE YEAR AWARDS 2016!

Following its release in Australia, Five Boxes, is now available in the UK.

I was recently on BBC Radio Cumbria's Gordon Swindlehurst show (I start at about 1 hour 10 minutes in) and featured in the Evening Mail (waiting for the URL on that one).

You can also hear my interview on ABC National's Conversations show with Ellen Fanning.

Praise for Five Boxes
Insightful, charming and genuinely funny - Mark MacLean is a natural storyteller and Five Boxes unpacks an adolescence that Readers of a Certain Age will find engrossing from start to finish - Nick Earls, writer

Funny, quirky and heartwarming - Tim Ferguson, comedian and writer

MacLean deftly weaves the past and the present in this disarmingly humorous and unsentimental reflection on growing up - Rosemarie Milsom, Newcastle Herald
