  5. A Love Letter To Europe

    01/02/2021

    A Love Letter To Europe

    A piece I wrote for the book A Love Letter To Europe, published by Coronet in 2020. It's about how great twin towns can be - even if (especially if!) you're a cynical teenager in the North of England in the 1990s. (Photo is from a school play. I was Lane the butler in The Importance Of Being Earnest. That's why I'm dressed all posh.)
