ABOUT THE BOOK

BOOK DETAILS

A novel of exile, ambition and love spanning 1 decade after the 1917 Russian revolution, 2 continents, several countries

I have had short stories and poetry published in online and print anthologies and literary journals.

In long fiction, I explore how events between the 2 world wars might have impacted ordinary individuals. My novel Beyond the Samovar, set in Russia and England 1919-20, was published in 2019 by The Conrad Press. The West in Her Eyes, a tale of exile, ambition and love in a fictional Russian family during the decade after the 1917 revolution, was published in 2024 by Resolute Books.

I enjoy gardening, choral and chamber singing, and choosing books for small family-members.
