Now one of the country’s leading figurative sculptors, she is best known for works such as the remarkable Commemorative Fountain outside the Royal Shakespeare Theatre in Stratford-upon-Avon.
Christine has always written creatively, having her first biography, The Midwife’s Sister, published in 2015 which reached the Times’ bestseller list. Christine currently lives in Devon. This is her first novel.
It is a very optimistic work, and very much your voice. The artist’s eye is in the careful descriptions. Your enjoyment of people, beautiful places and good food shines through.
You seem to have started on a further career. Keep it up.
This morning I finished 'Dare to Dance' and have put a card in the post to thank you for such a joyful read! It was perfect for these cold dark days - a real fairy tale - and I particularly enjoyed the lovingly described food and good company. Even Arthur's death at the end felt right. I hope you really enjoyed writing it.
