Matthew Hooton, a graduate of the MA creative writing course at Bath Spa, won the inaugural Greene & Heaton Prize for his acclaimed debut novel Deloume Road, which is published in May by Jonathan Cape.  Reminiscent of Steven King’s novella The Body (filmed as Stand by Me) and Mary Lawson’s Crow Lake, and yet with a voice all of its own, Deloume Road is a book that stays with the reader long after finishing.
