With over 2 millions books sales to date, it’s no wonder fans of Freya North have been eagerly awaiting her new novel, Little Wing, set in the stunning Outer Hebrides where weather and landscape defines the lives of the story’s characters. Freya joins us now to reveal more about the book and how lockdown provided the space and time needed to write it…
About Little Wing
1969. Florence Lawson, a 16-year-old schoolgirl who dreams of being an artist, finds herself pregnant and banished to one of the most remote parts of the UK.
1986. Dougie Munro, searching for adventure, leaves the Isle of Harris – the island of his birth – for art college and a career in London as a photographer.
2005. Nell Hartley, content with her life running a care-in-the-community cafe in Colchester, discovers a shocking truth about her family.
Between the sprawl of London, suburban Essex, and the wild, unpredictable Outer Hebrides, three lives collide and past secrets come to light. What happened to Florence? Why is Dougie now so reluctant to return home? How can Nell make peace with the lies she’s been told?
Little Wing is a novel about resilience, forgiveness and the true meaning of family, about finding one’s place in the world and discovering how we all belong somewhere, and to someone.
