Bevan is heading towards a calamitous fall.
Jez is already at the bottom, living on the streets and facing the approach of winter.
Their paths seem mysteriously entwined - Is it their fate to meet? Do they each hold a key to solve the other's plight?
The Levelled is a story of mental disintegration amid personal tragedy and the de-humanising effect of corporate life. It also explores the harsh reality of homelessness ... and how salvation can be found where least expected.
Note from the Author -
The description of rough sleeping in this book comes from the imagination, not first-hand experience. The Levelled is more about possible routes towards detachment from society than it is about being homeless. I am conscious that appropriating the grim realities of life on the street in pursuit of being published might be questionable. I have tried my best to capture an approximation of the truth and reflect that the underlying issues are extremely complex.
All author royalties from sale of this paperback/e-book will be donated to local (East Anglia, UK) homelessness charities.
