Personal profile About my current work Antarctic series 2016 Ceramics Writing Contact Links

A hysterical woman explodes onto the stage at the end of

a performance of a famous composer’s opera in the belief that

she is his wife. This story tracks her progression from stalker to

full-blown delusion, and her journey into madness. Trapped in

the drama is a 12-year-old girl, the woman’s piano student, who

as an adult tries to solve the mystery of what became of her.

Who was this mystery woman, why did she seemingly disappear

without trace, and why the wall of silence?

Fact and fiction are skillfully blended in a gripping account of

obsession and unrequited love, and one woman’s pathway

to redemption.
