Flora spotted a large handwritten sign perched against a shrub with two long arrows. Above the left arrow was written BRIDGE, above the other arrow was, in smaller capital letters, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.
Set largely in 1970s Oxford and USA, Make me thy lyre is a Bildungsroman with humour, Shakespeare, art, poetry, death and loss. It is framed by a prologue and epilogue set fifty years later. Flora is an only child from suburban north London. At Oxford University she reads Arabic and plays Rosaline and Beatrice. Initially lonely, she discovers boys and friendship, but tragedy strikes. A bridge connects us to the living; can it connect us to the dead? The past matters.
