Doubting Thomas by Heather Richardson
This disturbing story of sex, drugs and blasphemy in late seventeenth-century Edinburgh - and of life and ideas in a repressive state that belongs to our past, speaks to our times about how the human spirit remains curious even when curiosity is dangerous and imposes silence even between those who are close.
Heather Richardson was born in Northern Ireland in 1964 and lives in Belfast. After a degree in English Literature at the University of Leicester she had a predictably non-literary series of jobs, including bus driver, medical representative and company director. A career break for child rearing gave her an excuse to pursue a new path as a writer and lecturer. She has an MA and PhD in Creative Writing, and now works for the Open University as a lecturer in English and Creative Writing. Her short stories, poems and creative nonfiction have been published in journals and anthologies in the UK, Ireland and Australia. Her first novel, Magdeburg (Lagan Press, 2010) is set in Germany during the Thirty Years War.
