Orna Ross Tour
Orna Ross is currently touring her first novel “Lovers’ Hollow� and is excited to bring her book on-line via various blogs. Orna spent fifteen years in freelance journalism in Dublin and London before settling down to write fiction.
This is her first offering, and a bumper read at 668 pages. It deals with Jo, a 38 year old woman who returns to Ireland for her dead mother’s funeral, to find that she has been left a suitcase of papers and letters from the past. In unearthing undreamt-of family secrets – of love and revenge in a time of war, of the conflict between happiness and duty, and even of a murder that has haunted three generations – Jo begins to understand certain truths, not only about the women who came before her, but about Rory O’Donovan, the man who she loved in her youth and who is now back in her life.
This novel weaves effortlessly between past and present and evades all attempts at pre-empting its stunning conclusion. A must for lovers of historical fiction everywhere.
Orna Ross co-runs Font Literary Agency & Writing Centre in Clontarf, Co. Dublin, Ireland and teaches creative writing classes. Please some on-line on the day and feel free to ask her any questions on her book, writing in general or literary agencies/publishers. She looks forward to chatting with you.
