A Pair of Bookends

2. Debut Spotlight - Victoria MacKenzie

23 Jan 2023

Description

Welcome back bookends to our second episode in our Debut Spotlight series with author Victoria MacKenzie and her debut novel 'For Thy Great Pain Have Mercy On My Little Pain' which was published on the 19th of January by Bloomsbury. Trigger warning: Mention of child/infant loss, talk of death/grief.We speak about Victoria's experience of not getting her first book published, how she started out as a poet and how the stories of Julian of Norwich and Margery Kempe came to be the heroines of her debut novel. This was such a fascinating conversation and for two gals that haven't been so eager to read much historical fiction, we absolutely gobbled up this book and loved hearing all about Victoria's writing process and research.To order Victoria's book:https://uk.bookshop.org/books/for-thy-great-pain-have-mercy-on-my-little-pain-9781526647887/9781526647887To follow Victoria:https://twitter.com/forthygreatpain?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5EauthorAs always, we have recommendations for you from the episode:Books-The Pharmacist by Rachelle AtallaRevelations of Divine Love by Julian of NorwichThe book of Margery KempeThe Red Bird Sings by Aiofe FitzpatrickOrpheus Builds A Girl by Heather ParryMusic-Pompeii by Cate Le BonTV-The WireIf you enjoy the podcast please do rate/review/subscribe as it helps us to reach other bookends!
