'In 1903, the artist Gwendolen Mary John travels from London to France with her companion Dorelia. Surviving on their wits and Gwen’s raw talent, the young women walk from Calais to Paris. In the new century, the world is full of promise: it is time for Gwen to step out from the shadow of her overbearing brother Augustus and seek out the great painter and sculptor Auguste Rodin. It is time to be brave and visible, to love and be loved – and time perhaps to become a hero as the stain of anti-Semitism spreads across Europe.' (Publication summary)

1 6 y separately published work icon You Lose These and Other Stories Goldie Goldbloom , Fremantle : Fremantle Press , 2011 Z1783742 2011 selected work short story ‘Prepare to encounter startling epiphanies, wonderfully eccentric conceits, and standout instances of wit and observation begging to be re-read. Among its well-pitched moments of vulnerability are further surprises: much that’s dark and sly, and – better still – twisted and bent’ — Tom Cho (Publisher website)

Toad, a little man who wears corsets, marries to prove his manhood. Together they are freaks - feared and ridiculed by the remote farming community in which they live. Into their lives come two Italian POWs bringing music, sensuality and a love that will fan the flames of small town bigotry.' (From the publisher's website.)
