Publisher Tom Chivers says, ‘I am entranced by this remarkable novel; by the poise of Kathryn’s exquisite prose of course, but also by its rich sense of place and the strangeness that is always threatening to break through. It’s a book that has really got under my skin, a powerful meditation on female oppression – and of self-discovery through isolation – and I can’t wait to share it with readers.’
Kathryn Bromwich says, ‘I am thrilled that Penned in the Margins will be publishing Between the Trees. Writing the novel was a way for me to process my thoughts and feelings at a very difficult time in my life, and I hope readers enjoy getting lost in these strange and mysterious woods as much as I did. Tom and the rest of the team understood completely what I was trying to achieve and I am grateful that they will be helping me tell this unsettling story.’
UK and Commonwealth rights were acquired from Matthew Turner at RCW Literary Agency. Between the Trees will be published in spring 2023.
