Mer om författaren

Sarah Gray has been storytelling all of her professional life. As a writer and filmmaker she is delighted by what she fears and loves to explore the darkly comic side of the human psyche. In a scary and illogical world there is plenty to allow her imagination free reign. Stories enable us to face the worst that can happen and then get back to everyday life, pretending the terrible stuff only happens to other people. In October 2015, Sarah’s fears were realized when she was diagnosed with Motor Neuron Disease. Since then she has been learning how to adapt to chronic disability and adjusting to the horror of a terminal illness.

Sarah writes beautifully and he sense of foreboding and unease is brilliantly conveyed. It echoes Mary Shelly or Edgar Allen Poe. –Clare Balding, award-winning broadcaster, journalist. and author
