Foreshore Acquires Memoir Of Narrow Escapes Star Emma Culshaw Bell

Foreshore has secured the memoir of Emma Culshaw Bell, star of the popular TV series Narrow Escapes. Titled Adrift, the book is set for publication this spring under Tributary, an imprint of Foreshore Publishing London.

Culshaw Bell describes Adrift as “a sharp witted blend of memoir, travel, grief, humour, and personal transformation”

She gained fame through her appearances in several episodes of Channel 4’s Narrow Escapes, a fly-on-the-wall series that highlights the diverse characters living along the canals, which premiered in late April last year. A highly anticipated second series is scheduled to air this spring.

Nicki van Zandt, Publishing Manager at Foreshore, said, “We are thrilled to sign this work. Narrow Escapes  was one of daytime’s top performers on Channel 4, and Emma one of the stars of the series. She will be back for the second series and her memoir is sure to be a big hit with fans of the show and also with anyone who has ever dreamed of giving it up for a life on a narrowboat.

“The book offers a humorous, raw, and relatable account of an alternative lifestyle many of us secretly aspire to.”

Adrift will be available for pre-order in paperback in April. £12.50.
