Life is not a dress rehearsal.
Rose Tremain
Perhaps, more importantly, I think that most human beings realise only a fraction of the true potential of their minds, so the spiritual or mystical, the things which remain mysterious or unexplained have always drawn me to include them in any scheme for a novel.

I think I'm drawn to writing about something which feels intense and important.

Rose Tremain
