Justin Fox on the pathway to his first novel, 'Quietly Waiting'

  • Summary

  • Tanya is a strong, independent young woman living in England. Surrounded by limitless possibilities, her biggest fear is not being able to find her true place in the world. Never usually driven by emotions, her world is turned upside down when she meets Evan. Evan is instantly her soulmate connection and he feels the same way about her. When Evan is deployed to Afghanistan, to fight a war he does not understand, Tanya must wait at home, feeling helpless to the cruel events beyond her control. As she waits, Tanya delves into the history of her family and discovers a connection with an ancestor who also found strength in her time of need. Tanya draws strength from an unexpected source, as she is visited in her dreams by others who have travelled the same path. These women become her safety net as she encounters troubling times.

    In this episode Gregory Dobbs chats to Justin Fox about the inspiration for his debut novel, the experience of love in the shadow of war, and what connecting stories across history reveals about human nature.
