An allotment. A bench. A grieving man. An asylum seeker on the run. An intimate, sharply relevant story that unfolds in the stillness between two people who should never have met, and yet desperately need each other.
Walter and Osama aren’t just characters, they’re reflections of two worlds colliding in quiet resistance. There’s heartbreak here, but also defiant kindness.

Reviews!

So good to know a reader likes my book - this is a review of my first 'Whenever'Whenever.
'The writing is immensely accomplished and persistently evocative. A lot of the time it’s as if you’re standing at my shoulder reading the words on the page. Kingsley Amis quipped that the essence of a good book is that no matter how many people are reading it you feel as if it were written to you alone: a sec Read more of this blog post »

Sarah Connell answered Lorn Bergstresser's question: Hi Sarah. Congratulations on your authorship! I recently wrote "Millionaire Janitor" with the purpose of helping young people make wise decisions. I was contacted by Hannah Baker who claims to have helped you make a success of your book(s). I'm inclined to ask her to make Millionaire Janitor more visible, but has she really helped you? Thanks! lorntc@gmail.com Sorry I have never heard of her. Good luck!
