"Margaret Leroy writes like a dream" - Tony Parsons "Margaret Leroy writes with candour and intelligence, capturing the menace of suddenly finding that the world may not be at all as you've thought it" - Helen Dunmore "What a storyteller Leroy is, and what an eye she has for contemporary life." - Fay Weldon"
Margaret Leroy read music at Oxford and subsequently became a social worker and social work researcher involved in counselling couples and sex therapy programmes, and in work with abused children and teenagers. Since taking her MA at Leicester University she has published numerous articles and two books. She is married and has two daughters.
