WWII saw plenty of women learning things and Isobel decides there are better ways to spend the war than worrying bout her RAF husband. She joins the ‘trainees’ and finds a world of boats she didn’t know existed – as well as lots of coal, calamities and cocoa! ‘A Marvellous Party’, is a ticklish but heartfelt “thank you” letter to his heroes and heroines, who threw down a pathway of glittering breadcrumbs to guide him from where and who he was to where and what he wanted and needed to be.
Stand-up poet, reluctant bear and attempted vegan strips… away labels of life, love, the arts and the LGBTQ+ community in this fast-paced, honest and hilarious debut. Dan navigates through the confusing world of definitions.
