Swimming with Diana Dors and other stories

In this collection Jeremy digs deeper, bringing to life memorable characters who remain with the reader. Variously personal, elegiac, political, and humorous, the stories range over themes of outsiders, loss, death, ghosts, change and the importance of place, with many stories set in London.

‘This is a powerful collection of stories rooted in experience and understanding. Jeremy Worman is capable of summing up a place and a life in a few paragraphs. I really enjoyed his earlier books, but this one represents a genuine move forward to a subtlety and nuance in the language. You will not be disappointed if you’re looking for stories that reveal powerfully the underlying sense of life and characters. Living in Hackney, where some of the stories are set, I know they have an authenticity which is very refreshing.’ Charlie Kimber and Diana Swingler

‘It is excellent writing overall.’ East End Review
