In Conversation | Writing the Anglo-Saxons with Nicola Griffith | Handheld Press Handheld Press 2024-03-20 | An absolute treat for readers, writers and historians alike as Handheld’s Kate Macdonald interviews multi-award-winning author Nicola Griffith. Having written a number of well-received science fiction and fantasy novels, a memoir and several short stories, Nicola published her first historical novel Hild (2013) and its sequel Menewood (2023) to widespread acclaim. In this absorbing conversation Nicola tells us how she sets about building a life and a world from scant historical detail, talks about her writing process and why, in her view, Anglo-Saxons shouldn’t be called Anglo-Saxons at all!Praise for Hild:“In its ambition and intelligence, Hild might best be compared to Hilary Mantel’s novels about Thomas Cromwell.” — Bookforum“A magnificent and convincing portrayal of a strange, wild, beautiful world.” — GuardianPraise for Menewood:“[A] masterpiece of immersion… Reading Menewood is like opening a door and stepping into another world…” New York Times“Menewood is an absolute triumph. Hild is truly a hero for all women, here and now.” — Carolyne Larrington, Professor of Medieval European Literature, University of OxfordNicola Griffith’s website:www.nicolagriffith.comGlossary (in order of appearance):17:28 ‘Vills’ - settlements20:54 ‘hack-silver’ - chopped up old silver objects which is weighed to make change for ingots47:21 ‘Gemæcce’ – Nicola invented this from an Anglo-Saxon concept of two women who are closely bound by semi-formal tiles of friendship and sometimes a blood relationship.50:48 #icanhazpdf – tag to signal a request for a pdf from anyone able to access itFeatured books: (in order of appearance): 1:40 Amonite by Nicola Griffith 1:53 Slow River by Nicola Griffith 2:05 The Blue Place by Nicola Griffith 2:09 Stay by Nicola Griffith 2:10 Always by Nicola Griffith 2:32 So Lucky by Nicola Griffith 2.38 Spear by Nicola Griffith 2:50 Hild by Nicola Griffith 2:56 Menewood by Nicola Griffith 4:08 Bede’s Ecclesiastical History of the English People 6:50 The Shining Company by Rosemary Sutcliff23:03 The Birds of Yorkshire by T H Nelson29:15 The Crystal Cave by Mary Stewart46:16 Cloth and Clothing in Early Anglo-Saxon England by Penelope Walton Rogers49:11 A Shortened History of England by G M Trevelyan49:30 Anglo Saxon England by Sir Frank Stenton51:58 Game of Thrones by George R R MartinFor more information on Handheld Press, direct orders and to see our full list, please visit our website here: www.handheldpress.co.ukAll UK prices include p&pTo subscribe to our newsletter (and get advance notice of special offers!) contact us direct at: enquiries@handheldpress.co.ukFollow us on Social Media!

In Night Shift Inez tells the story of factory night shift workers through their chatter and casual talk, on and off their machines, in and out of the bombardment. We enter their lives and they enter our hearts.Inez Holden (1903-1974) was a British writer and literary figure whose social and professional connections embraced most of London’s literary and artistic life. She modelled for Augustus John, worked alongside Evelyn Waugh, and had close relationships with George Orwell, Stevie Smith, H G Wells, Cyril Connolly, and Anthony Powell.For more information, direct orders and to see our full list, please visit our website here: www.handheldpress.co.ukAll UK prices include p&pTo subscribe to the newsletter yourself, contact us direct at: enquiries@handheldpress.co.ukFollow us on Social Media!
