His reporting of their stories is peppered with snatches of conversation and images of the objects that have become such a significant part of their lives: a toilet roll, the rolling tobacco pouch, the mobile phone. Through Kugler's complicated, intense graphic reportage, we empathise with those whose experiences he records.","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56309312291189,"sku":"9781912408122","price":19.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781912408122_d629e33a-35bc-48f4-986a-6c89272410f6.jpg?v=1786030963"},{"product_id":"9781912408672","title":"The Chagos Betrayal","description":"Between 1965 and 1973 the inhabitants of the Chagos archipelago were forcibly removed from their homeland and dumped in Mauritius and Seychelles.

Some are sad, some are funny, some are boring, but none are ever quite what you would guess. In Biscuits, Jenny Robins takes a look at a handful of women's stories in the city as they defy and comply with our expectations, and as they step out of the cookie cutter mould of what it means to be a woman today.","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56313151357301,"sku":"9781912408290","price":16.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781912408290_d40fb983-6f33-4373-8253-16d87a910ea0.jpg?v=1786030968"},{"product_id":"9781912408030","title":"The Murder of Harriet Monckton","description":"On 7th November 1843 Harriet Monckton, 23 years old and a woman of respectable parentage and religious habits, was found murdered behind the chapel she had regularly attended in Bromley, Kent.
