I'm writing a novel for each of the seven years of World War Two. To me, it’s an inexhaustible subject for many reasons, some of which are the moral issues it confronts, its parallels to today’s wars, and the ever-present possibility of dictator-driven genocide. The novels are not connected; their commonality being ordinary people whose lives and destinies are distorted by war. Each takes place in a fictional town, itself a character, and each has an underlying theme: one art, one sport, one music, one food, one science. (The theme of the last, is, appropriately, writing itself.) They’re fast-paced, evocative and historically grounded in the very real events that characterized each year of the global conflict.

Contact Page Problems

If anyone tried to get in touch with me using the "Contact" page of the davidandrewwestwood.com publishing website, please try again. The system has been experiencing problems, and it seems that recent contacts were not delivered. The problems have now been fixed. My sincere apologies if anyone's message seemed to have been ignored.
