Angela Huth has written ten novels, four collections of short stories and plays for radio, TV and the stage. Two of her earlier novels - “Virginia Fly is Drowning” and “Sun Child” - she adapted for the BBC, and “Landgirls” was made into a feature film. Her latest novel, “Of Love and Slaughter”, is set against a background of the farming crisis in the West Country. She is currently at work on her eleventh novel (in the mornings) and her second work of non-fiction (afternoons) – an anthology of outstanding addresses at funerals and memorials, to be published by John Manning(?) next October. (Her first non-fiction book was the Englishwoman’s Handbook which later she turned into a BBC documentary shaming Mrs Thatcher!). She also reviews books for The Spectator and does occasional journalism for The Daily Telegraph and likes to tap dance in every spare moment. Married to a don, Angela Huth has two daughters: the writer Candida Crews, and Eugenie Howard-Johnston, in her last year at New College, who also writes for The Telegraph. |
