A Thread Of Navy Blue
When widowed ex-Wren Elspeth Collins decides to cultivate her favourite fuchsias, she finds that she has opened up a path to her Naval past - but when she has a chance meeting with the man she should have married years ago, events take a dramatic turn. This charming and heartwarming story of a love reborn in the unlikeliest of circumstances is written by Essex-based author Ken Westell. In the same tradition as his other titles The Root Of All The Trouble, 'Oppin' and Tales Of The Town, this 201-page title is littered with warm humour and unexpected twists.
The Root Of All The Trouble
When Gwen left widowhood behind to marry widower Albert, she fully expected that her life would change course. Nothing, however, could have prepared her for returning home unexpectedly to find a naked stripper in her sitting room. Neither could she have anticipated her new husband, together with his septuagenarian friends from the British Legion, clearing the local shopping mall of yobs. Or, for that matter, burying the snobbish local golf club under a mountain, or founding a political party. All this, in the cause of proving that "late in life" doesn't mean "gone into the sunset."
'Oppin
Beginning in the summer of 1939, 'Oppin tells how hop-picking - to support the Kentish beer industry - was a month-long holiday for London's East Enders and a way of topping up the family budget. "a humorous little tale, where all the comic touches lie in the dialogue and the language of a bygone age" - Kent Messenger, August 2012
Tales Of The Town
This third book from Southend journalist Ken Westell is an enthralling anthology containing twenty short stories, all inspired by life, the people and the places of his hometown of Southend-on-Sea, the sunshine seaside capital of Essex. Ken's tongue-in-cheek tales will delight, amuse, shock and surprise you in equal measure and will appeal to Southenders and non-Southenders alike.
