What a great title for a book and a talk. Greg Duncan joins us on Saturday, 5 April, in the evening to discuss his research for his historical novel “Champagne in a Broken Teacup”. The fictional story is woven into historically accurate reality, and was inspired by the activities of his French aunt, an art teacher, who during World War 2 was a document forger for the French resistance.

Born in Scotland, raised in Canada and now living in England, Greg Duncan’s past included far too many years writing non-fiction and cajoling computers into doing the impossible. Since retiring, he decided to return to his interest in creative writing, including plays, poetry and short stories. One of the dramas in his book of short plays won awards for script and entertainment.

Greg is an experienced speaker and adult education tutor, so he will be sure to keep us all on our seats as he shares the process of the research he undertook before writing the novel. He will describe and illustrate some of the fascinating and unexpected facts he discovered.
