An engaging, bittersweet story of infatuation, obsession  - - and QPR!.

Dave is a professional footballer whose team are contenders to win the First Division title. He is introduced to beautiful Lisa Dell. Lisa sees potential in Dave beyond his interest in football. But she has another suitor - with a deadly secret.

London 1976. IRA bombings and death on the streets amid political upheaval. Wilson resigns as PM and Margaret Thatcher becomes Tory leader.

Dave’s team is close to winning the First Division title for the first time. And Dave is becoming even closer to Lisa. But life, like football, can be a funny old game. And things don’t always go exactly according to plan.

When Dave tries to find Lisa after an IRA bomb explodes in a pub she had planned to visit, he realises how little he actually knows about her. And a book of poems Lisa had given him reveals some worrying possibilities.

Their relationship fluctuates in tandem with the fortunes of Dave’s football team as the story reaches its denouement. It’s an eclectic mix of passion, politics, penalties and poetry, in pursuit of the ultimate prize

Review - Sunday Business Post 21st January 2018

'Do you have a book inside burning to become a reality? Many of us know the feeling but few of us go through with the process.  Not so for advertising legend and football fanatic Joe Clancy, who penned his debut novel 'Silver Apples of the Moon' when he broke free of the day job.  A beguiling mix of romance, politics, poetry and the beautiful game, this page turner leaves no target market unturned.' 


Extract of a Q & A  session with JOE CLANCY

 The Silver Apples of the Moon is your debut novel. You describe it as an engaging, bittersweet story of infatuation, obsession, poetry and football. That’s a pretty eclectic mix.

I suppose it is. At first sight, certainly, football and poetry would appear to be unlikely bedfellows Poetry is not something one hears too often on the terraces but when played well, there is something quite poetic about football. The way the action is described can be quite lyrical too.  They don’t call it ‘the beautiful game’, for nothing.

Perfect size!
I love a good large hobo bag! This one has a great slouch to it and you can fit a ton in it! I've had everything from my iPad and a makeup bag plus yoga clothes and still had room for a water bottle too! The fabric is gorgeous and although I'm not always keen on logo-prints, I like that the bag's print is so understated and discreet.

Large, non zipping, sturdy, stylish
large cream MK purse I’m giving my thoughts on this purse that I got recently and here is what I liked. Size- This is a large purse. It has one large main compartment that is secured with a gold, snapping clasp. It doesn’t come apart unless you push both sides of this clasp. 1 pocket inside for my phone or whatever I need quick access to. 2 vertical outside pockets with working zipper. The pockets run the height of the purse and are narrow. I can get a skinny water bottle in there. Not Adjustable This comes with a short shoulder strap. The strap is not removable. There are two D-rings (H-ring) on each side that hold the strap so if I want I can add a long strap. Really though, this is not the kind of purse that would look good with a long strap. There is plenty of room to put the purse on your shoulder and it feels very secure. Look and feel It looks and feels like leather to me but it says PU which is not leather. I’m fine with that. It is firm in a sturdy strong way, having structure and can stand up on a table. The material is the kind you can wipe with a damp cloth. This purse is not going to get stained unless it’s something like ink that stains practically everything. Mine has monogram NK but if you don’t look real close, I think it looks a lot like a designer purse with the monogram m and k. Function I tend to change purses a lot so I keep things in smaller bags. For example, I have small bags for makeup, medical etc and they fit neatly in here. There is not a designated place for cards and cash so you’d need a wallet or you could put it in the inside pocket. I use a medium sized wallet. My iPhone 14 with case fits in the inside pocket and hasn’t fallen out yet. The 2 outside zipper pockets are large enough to hold my phone and my wallet, one on each side. I can’t think of anything I’d add or change right now. This is a very nice bag to carry everyday. The holding capacity is similar to the neverfull. I’m happy I got this and can recommend it to you. It’s nice looking, makes good use of space, and for me, was a good deal.

Quality is not there, I am very disappointed!
Color: Pink, Color: Pink
I am one of those very rare ladies that will wait until her previous purse is on its last leg before I buy a new one. That is when I decided I needed this one. Once I opened the package I noticed a very distinct odor, it was very obviously the purse and it was not a "new" smell it was very off-putting. The purse does not seem very durable as I noticed loose threads throughout the lining of the purse. I was also a little disappointed that this purse is so large but it only had one very large square pocket on the inside. The only reason I gave this more than one star is because of the two very nice pockets on the purse front. I appreciate what they were trying to do, I do not think they were quite up to par on the quality, I would not recommend this item.

Beautifully Branded and Roomy Tote Bag
This bag arrived well packaged. It was enclosed in a plastic sleeve that had a cardboard insert covering 2 sides of the bag. The bag was also inside a cloth type bag that is usually reserved for expensive purses/bags. There was also protective material covering the bag’s handle and clasp. The packaging protected the bag and there were no damage when received. When I removed the bag from its packaging, the “NK” excited and confused me. At first glance, I thought that I had mistakenly received THE designer bag with similar logo branding. There are decorative zippers on the front of the bag which uniquely camouflage 2 roomy front pockets. This was a great idea since it enables me to store items there (keys, coin purse, mints) without having to enter the bag’s main compartment to retrieve them. The closing clasps operate without incident and compliment the look of the bag. The handle allows you to throw it over the shoulder or just carry in your hands. The inside is very roomy, is nicely lined and has a pocket where you can slip items in so they don’t get lost inside the bag. The roominess of the bag reminds me more of a tote bag than a purse. Overall, this is a really nice bag that I am proud to own.
