    About this ebook

    The Blitz, Cockneys, pubs, the Queen's Silver Jubilee, the nature of memory and nostalgia, the future of democracy as we know it. I was inspired to mull over all these issues and more after hearing Billy Bragg's song Full English Brexit. As Britain begins its Brexit process, see if this essay strikes a chord with you.

    Author

    Sue Osborne

    I'm a journalist for newspapers and magazines with more than 20 years experience, but since the age of 7 I've wanted to be an author, and I'm just starting to experiment with creative writing and the wonderful world of epublishing. When my 12-year-old daughter described a short story of mine as 'brilliant' I thought it was about time I stared experimenting with getting something out there, so 'The Field' is my first foray. I hope you like it, as there's more to come.
