Author: Fiona Mozley
Fiona Mozley releases her first novel, a poetic but dark tale of life in Modern Britain.
A story about family loyalty begins with a family who think their little home in Elmet, in a corner of Yorkshire, is safe, away from all the darkness in the world. They all lived outside all social conventions, Cathy and Daniel wandering freely, their father building and hunting and occasionally disappearing to do secret, ruthless work for money but he was their only protector.
A catastrophic event changes everything, their home as they know it destroyed. They have to face a fierce, unyielding power as a family.
Elmet is a mesmerising story about the limits of life and family loyalty.
