ROLLING OUT NOW!

A Tapestry of Two Worlds 

 

Events, spread across two continents, weave the tapestry of James Harrison Veevers’ life. Raised in the traditions of a middle-class English family, he emerges into adulthood under the shadow of his father’s expectations but without a clear direction. Boldly, he steps into East Asia to find his purpose, or perhaps to escape; first emigrating to Ceylon, then travelling north to Bombay. He immerses himself there during a period of rapid innovation. From steadfast rules of Victorian England to chaotic freedom in India, the Crown Jewel of the Empire, James strives to find the balance between his artistic nature and his need to achieve. Exchanging pastoral views, dingy factories, and crushing poverty during the Industrial Revolution in Lancashire for the exotic culture of Asia, James gathers the threads of his life, creating tightly knotted experiences. Can he really fit his hopes and dreams into this world or is James just intoxicated by the splendour of advancing Victorian architecture, engineering feats, and swift development?

March / April: Researching the New Book

Work on my 5th book began earlier this year. Although I have scads of background information, my search will expand in London, England. I'm eager for my visit to cousins for their memories and first-hand experiences with the protagonist of my story, Victor Hubert Veevers.   Watch for details in my April Newsletter.
