Talking Aussie Books with Jennifer McKenzie Dunbar


Listen Later

I first interviewed Jennifer McKenzie Dunbar back in April 2020, just after she'd self-published her debut novel, 'Vivaldi's Lost Concerto'. And what a debut it was. So much fascinating research and detail coloured the historical thread of the narrative of that book along with the harrowing experiences of a contemporary woman who had been through the prison system. Something Jennifer was able to write drawing on her experiences as a social worker.

This year, Jennifer is back with a new novel. A story that she in fact foreshadowed when we last chatted.

Called 'Missing Pieces' (Midnight Sun Publishing) this novel bears Jennifer's trade mark fascination with real historical events.

This time we learn about the discovery of a priceless hoard of medieval handcrafted chess pieces on the remote Scottish island of Lewis in 1831.

A remarkable tale. You won't want to miss this episode!
