The Frost Fairs

Winner of the 2012 Polari PrizeA Book of the Year for The Independent and The Poetry SchoolHoliday Read in The ObserverThe Frost Fairs is a compassionate book with a global and historical scope, tackling science and city life from a range of surreal yet poignant angles. It explores love in many forms, from modern transatlantic relationships to hidden gay and cross-gendered lives from the past.
