Wild Honey
By Irene M Redpath
eBook (PDF):
$3.89
"Wild Honey" is a book I wrote in two chunks, over twenty years apart. I came across the fragments many years later, read them through and thought that they ought at least to be finished... More > off. I set to work with no fixed ideas - and what came out of the experiment surprised even me.
It's a story without a defined place in time, though I would suspect that the events described took place in the latter half of the twentieth century.
There aren't many characters. You won't get lost, wondering who is who. It's a story told by one person, from one point of view, and the narrator tells the story simply, without any kind of detail which doesn't seem to matter.
I don't want to upstage the narrator by telling you much more - I hope you'll want to read the book for yourself, and enjoy it, and then come back and tell others what you thought of it.
Thanks for reading this far!< Less

I wrote this book quite quickly, early in the year of 2010. I had been working on something else when a voice came into my head and began to tell me this story. I wrote it down - and this is the result.
As with all of my fiction, there are no real people in it! Or at least none that I know of. I hope you'll enjoy reading the book.< Less
