Trebetherick ~ Gratiana Chanter

As promised, here is the second of today's announcements (you can read the first one by clicking here).

On 4 May, to accompany the release of The Witch of Withyford, Nezu Press will publish a hardback edition of Trebetherick, also by Gratiana Chanter, with a long biographical essay by me. 

As I said before, I'm definitely going to be posting much more about this Devonshire writer, and her mother (whose book is the subject of my next announcement), in the days and weeks to come.

Here are the details:

Gratiana Chanter’s novel Trebetherick, a tale of shipwrecks, wreckers, hidden treasure, abducted maidens, murder and other evil doings, was first published in 1913 by Francesco Giannini & Figli of Naples. The story is told from the perspective of David Rounsevall of Trebetherick in the Parish of St. Enodoc, Cornwall, and begins the night he first hears ghostly Tregeagle howl during a ferocious storm. This edition includes a detailed biographical essay by Gina R. Collia, ‘Gratiana Chanter: A Typical Daughter of Devon’.

You can pre-order it directly from Nezu Press (Publisher shop: Click here). Or you can do so from the usual online retailers; the book will be showing up in all the usual places soon.
