About Seascraper by Benjamin Wood
In Longferry, Thomas follows his grandfather’s trade, taking a horse and cart to the beach to scrape for shrimp and selling his catch through the afternoon. At home, he rehearses songs on his guitar, holding on to a private ambition to become a folk musician.
Thomas’s routine is unsettled by a striking visitor who promises a glimpse of Hollywood glamour and a different future. As he weighs what the American tells him against the life he knows, Seascraper follows a young man’s hopes for fulfilment beyond the limits of his circumstances. It may appeal to readers drawn to literary fiction about work, music and the pull of possibility.
