Parthian Showcase: Mumbles


Another great Parthian showcase event tonight, this time in Mumbles with the sun streaming through the stained glass…

From a tale of two sisters, two nuclear power stations and one child caught in the middle to a coming-of-age horror fantasy set admist a backdrop of political turmoil in 2000s Zimbabwe. A state-of-the-nation novel exploring hope and relationships as the clouds gathered around the EU referendum in Brighton. Violet Hart learns to find her voice against a whirlwind affair with an older lover. And the town of Llanelli is explored through a sardonic, melancholic and joyful collection of short stories.
