In the Memorial Room

Set in the picturesque village of Menton, the story follows Harry Gill, a historical fiction writer, as he grapples with the challenges of the Watercress–Armstrong Fellowship. Tasked with writing in a Memorial Room devoid of modern amenities, he discovers that the space holds no true connection to the poet Margaret Rose Hurndell, despite the expectations placed upon him. As he navigates his surroundings and the legacy of Hurndell, Harry confronts the pressures of creativity and the weight of history.
