Anyone within reach of southwest London (Sheen) this evening, please join me (Jennie Ensor) and my fellow Unbound author Jessica Duchen for a discussion of writing based on real-life events. Our books both feature historical events. (Historical-ish events in the case of Blind Side, i.e. London in 2005, 7/7 and the Russia-Chechnya conflict a few years earlier.)
Jessica Duchen’s novel Ghost Variations is very much worth a read, especially by anyone interested in the 1930s period, classical music or seances/spiritualism. It’s a fascinating story stemming from the ‘spirit messages’ believed to have come from dead composer Robert Schumann – and GV has been chosen as book of the year by Classic FM presenter John Suchet. (See a guest post and my review.)
Tickets are £2 (taken off the price of either book) including wine and can be bought through Eventbrite.
