Quotes My fiction ranges from the early 20th century to the 1970s. The 1950s and 1960s are dramatic because of the rapid changes in society that took place in just a few years.

Could you tell us more about your project, which you titled The Practice of Perfection in your application? I noticed you also published a short story collection under the same title back in 2009. Is your current project a reworking or continuation of that earlier book? I’ve just finished Mothering Sunday by Graham Swift, and I’m now reading Nora Webster by Colm Toibin. What are you reading for pleasure right now? External links Category:Women academics from England Category:Chemists from England Category:Women scientists from England Category:Living people
