This led to a career in the City in intellectual property law and a second university entrance to study law. Retiring early, he embarked upon period property restoration. Always interested in writing, his debut novel was Amaryllis Iden, loosely based on ‘Amaryllis At The Fair’ by the celebrated Victorian country essayist Richard Jefferies. A second novel, Dancing With Rita, inspired by the true story of an East-End girl who takes up an ill-fated land army posting in the Wiltshire countryside, deals with the social mores and constraints of ordinary working-class people in post-war Britain.Married with two children, the author now resides in West Sussex.lihat lebih sedikit
