Rosy Thornton

    Táto autorka sa ponorila do komplexného a paradoxného prostredia pobrežia Suffolku, kde sa meniace piesky stretávajú s večnou nemennosťou, a čerpá z tejto krajiny inšpiráciu pre svoje diela. Jej poviedky, zasadené do tejto jedinečnej oblasti, skúmajú zložité ľudské vzťahy a vnútorné svety. Prostredníctvom svojho písania autorka odhaľuje hĺbku a krásu miesta, ktoré je zároveň neustále sa meniace a hlboko zakorenené.

      When Richard Slater receives a letter of complaint from one of his constituents, a Margaret Hayton, he merely responds with his standard letter of empty promises. Clearly, this woman is insane and must be avoided at all costs. But she will not be dismissed so easily, and when Richard finally sets eyes on the 'twenty-something vision in stone-washed denim, with a cloud of dark ringlets and huge, serious eyes' he risks losing his heart, his head and quite possibly his political career.
