The Glass NightEditions
Review
As The Glass Night's narrator, Dan Flasch, tells his life-story to his son, he takes us from Nazi Germany to wartime Coventry and 1990s London, where Kate lies in a coma after a mysterious fall from a balcony. As Coventry is rebuilt, it reinvents its past. Dan has to accommodate his Jewish origins and reassess his relationship with his foster-family as he grows up. When Kate wakes up she can't remember anything about her fall - and what will she be told? The Glass Night is a complex novel about trauma and change; about dislocation, both in private and public life; and about the possibility of interventions which could even be called miracles. - review by John de Falbe |

I decided to publish this novel myself, together with my wife Nell, under the imprint of The Cuckoo Press. To date it has sold nearly 3000 copies. It was widely and well reviewed and shortlisted for the 1996 Mail on Sunday /John Llewellyn Rhys Prize.
