Book of the Month - When God Was a Rabbit - October 2012

The Book
Continuing on with our trend of reading debut novels, "When God Was a Rabbit" is an intriguing tale about family, friendship and relationships. On the surface the story is full of humour in places, but it is equally routed in tragedy and centred around a number of historical events such as John Lennon's murder and 9/11. The book has won several awards including the Galaxy New Writer of the Year Award in 2011.

The Author
Sarah Winman was originally an actress before turning to writing. She studied at the Webber Douglas Academy of Dramatic Art and has acted in the theatre, film and television including in shows such as 'Holby City', 'The Bill', 'Foyle's War' and 'Bad Girls'.
