AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'I discovered Gillian Mears’s work in my teens, when my mum loaned me a copy of The Mint Lawn. That was 20 years ago, yet I still remember the uneasy feeling the book gave me, as if I was eavesdropping on adult conversation. That book won Mears the Vogel prize and I was hooked. ...'
