I always feel better after buying a new book #firsttimecaller @simonandschuster.bsky.social

I hope you find what you're looking for.
I also hope you someday own an enchanted cottage that lurches through the wildlands on giant chicken legs, spreading fear and wonder in equal measure.

A book cover with a muted pinkish-brown background. The title, "A Brief Inhalation," is displayed in bold red serif font at the top, with the author's name, "Daragh Fleming," in a smaller black serif font below. The central design is an abstract geometric composition featuring overlapping and intersecting sharp-edged shapes in black, red, and dark brown. At the bottom, the publisher's name, "Broken Sleep Books," appears in a subtle brown serif font.

Once upon a time I was born and then I was dying. Umbilical cord around my neck, it looked like an early exit from a brief life. But then I wasn’t. The doctor sorted me out. I was being dramatic. But I was a baby so that’s to be expected. My tongue was tied, but otherwise I seemed grand. Just a very un-notable baby in quite an extraordinary world. Classic case of hurtling into existence. I was a shy boy. I got embarrassed quite easily. I was afraid to talk to people I didn’t know. And at the beginning you don’t know almost everyone. But with people I knew and was comfortable with, I was very open. My brother was my best friend and my worst enemy all rolled into one tiny, blonde person. My mother and father were dead on. They gave me food and a bed and toys the entire way up. As I got older, I got less shy but more fat. I ate a lot. I loved sweets, hated cheese, and enjoyed everything else in between. I was plump. It was described as puppy fat, being big boned. Something I’d grow out of. Which made sense as I’d grown into it. But that was my own doing, so I concluded that I’d have to be the one to instigate the growing-out-of too. I hated most sports. Didn’t understand them. That was, until I found basketball and thought

PREORDER 31.03.2025, @daraghfleming.bsky.social):

Daragh Fleming’s A Brief Inhalation is a candid exploration of contemporary existence, dissecting themes of identity, dislocation, and introspection with a sharp, unflinching eye.
