Another Kind of Loving and Beyond the Broken Gate are the first two parts of a trilogy, called Distant Voices. What makes them shine amid all the crowd of books published every day is the vividness of the descriptions, the humanity of the characters and of course the stories themselves.

The first book, Another Kind of Loving, tells the story of a man and a woman who decide to foster a child from Bosnia. The coming of the little girl in their lives means many different things for each one of them and they subsequently react differently to her existence, letting at times their weakest points come out. Minkie, the young Bosnian girl, serves as a lens, through which the authors depicts a view of Middle England from a different perspective. She also serves as a trait d’union with the second book, Beyond the Broken Gate.
