Eliza Granville

I was always determined to be a writer and started writing at a very early age.Life got in the way. I began again when my children became adults. I have demanded more of myself over time.

If stories are woven then I want the warp and weft of mine to be made up of many textures and an extraordinary variety of colours. This is a very slow process. I also want them to be easy to read – even when they are wrung out of me word by word.

I have had a life-long fascination with the enduring quality of fairytales and their symbolism, the idea for my novel, Gretel and the Dark was sparked when I became interested in the emphasis placed on these stories during the Third Reich.
