LONGLISTED FOR THE GORDON BURN PRIZE 2025

Patrick, Shiv, Rian, Oli and Conor grew up together. They played together, skipped school together, and dreamt of everything they’d do with their lives. Now they are thirty, and only Rian has made it out of the estate and moved away to another city, but his money doesn’t stop him clinging to a vision of the past that is quickly slipping away.

Oli is fading by the day, drinking and snorting his way through the endless boredom, while Conor has a baby on the way and a business plan he hopes will change everything. Patrick and Shiv are as in love as ever, but even they are rocked when an old secret opens up new wounds …

Keiran Goddard is a novelist, poet and social commentator. His debut poetry collection was shortlisted for the Melita Hulme and William Blake prizes, his debut novel HOURGLASS was longlisted for the Desmond Elliott prize and his latest novel I SEE BUILDINGS FALL LIKE LIGHTNING has been published to widespread acclaim and has been nominated for the Gordon Burn Prize.
