“Interweaving History and Fiction : How I wrote the book"
Greg Duncan will be talking about the story behind his recently published novel "Champagne in a Broken Teacup" which was inspired by the activities of his French aunt who was a forger with the French resistance during WW2
This is a fictional story woven into historical reality inspired by the activities of Greg's French aunt. She was an art teacher in the French town of Nevers and during World War 2 was a member of the French resistance and a document forger. Prior to writing he undertook extensive research into the events of the period and the German occupation of France in order to weave these factors into the story to provide a living background for the plot. His talk includes readings from the novel, an illustrated presentation of his research approach and some of the fascinating facts he discovered during his research.
This will be a live presentation at Harman’s Cross Village Hall, BH19 3EBDoors open at 9.45am. The proceedings start, after coffee, at around 10.20am with news and notices, followed by the talk at 10.30am. - 23rd October 2025 -
