Love Song by Nikki Gemmell, ISBN 9781740510417

> Fiction Books > Literature Books

'Love Song' is the story of Lillie Bird, a woman from a locked religious community who one day finds herself in the freedom of a strange new world, England, accused of murdering a man. But it was there, in that land of cold, dark skies and scuffed and tumbling streets that she had first found the pleasure and the sadness, and the love she had, for years, so desperately sought.

'Love Song' is at once a celebration of the human spirit and a powerful story of exile, identity and love. Mesmerising and heartbreaking, this is Nikki Gemmell's finest work to date.

About the Author: Nikki Gemmell

Nikki Gemmell (born 1966) is an Australian author, best known for anonymously writing the best-selling erotic novel The Bride Stripped Bare. Gemmell was born in Wollongong, New South Wales. She has worked as a radio journalist for ABC Radio in Sydney, New South Wales, Darwin, Northern Territory, Alice Springs, Northern Territory, at Triple J, the ABC's youth network and as a producer for the BBC World Service.
She wrote three novels: Shiver, Cleave and Love Song, before the 2003 publication of The Bride Stripped Bare, which became an international bestseller. Although published anonymously, Gemmell was soon identified as the author. Gemmell's searching narratives have led the French to compare her to hail her as a "female Jack Kerouac"; critics in the United States have hailed her as one of the few truly original literary voices to emerge in a long time. The influential Francophone literary journal Lire included her in a list of the 50 international writers it believes will have "a significant influence on the literature of the 21st century". The writers - selected by a group of editors - were chosen for their "originality of subject", "individual voice" and "unmistakeable style".
