You Never Know

Claire Lorrimer's autobiography

Spanning the 20th century. A Daily Mirror reviewer described one of her many books as a 'slice of life'.

YOU NEVER KNOW is the whole rich tapestry of a life overflowing with adventure, humour, tragedy, love, joy and disasters.

She paints vivid images of her childhood when her mother, Denise Robins, entertained pre- and post-war literati at her weekend country house parties.

Armed with an old typewriter, a vivid imagination and a passion for life, Claire started writing books during the war whilst in the WAAF.

She is a past master at crafting a sentence to evoke more than just an image; every scene captures the emotion of the moment. She has had a remarkable career and YOU NEVER KNOW is the engrossing story of a fascinating life

"A compelling portrait of a woman who knows how to love and live... 86 eventful years warmly and charmingly related.. A natural storyteller naturally tells her own story effortlessly, hypnotically and joyfully. Another winner in a long string of successes."
Sarah Broadhurst, 'Bookseller' Magazine

"I found this nostalgic autobiography riveting, reminiscent of Gosford Park. Excellent stuff - I loved it."

Diane Pearson, President, Romantic Novelists' Association
