Sammy Tierney’s The Old Inevitable Prison Tale is all-too familiar tale of brutality. In A Day To Remember, a young man comes of age on his very first day in work. Ada Mason from the Rochdale Writers Group describes the shops on Wood Street in Middleton before the era of the supermarket. And the Commonword team pays tribute to their colleague, the writer Ray Mort who took his own life.
