Black Swan
15 May 2008

Modern & contemporary fiction (post c 1945)

A rich, romantic and nostalgic novel of decadent French summers, glamorous characters and dark, tragic secrets.

Every summer throughout her childhood, Florence would return to her family home on the west coast of France, where she would be joined by her exotic, hopelessly glamorous cousins and life as she knew it would begin under the benevolent eye of her grandmother Mimi.

It was a heady existence of illicit drinking, stolen kisses and the bittersweet pains of first love.

But now Florence is living completely alone with her new baby.

Haunted by nightmares, she cannot open the letters from her grandmother accumulating on her mantelpiece.

What devastating truth do these letters hold?

Why has Florence turned her back on her past? And will she and Mimi ever be able to escape the guilt that is tearing them apart and has shaken their family to its very core?

Natasha Farrant previously worked in publishing and now runs her own children's literary scouting agency. She grew up in the heart of the French community in London, and has therefore never considered herself as completely English, although certainly not completely French, which makes for a quite interesting view of the world. Natasha is in her thirties, and lives in West London with her husband and two children.
