April Zarney was ten when her best friend, Elena, disappeared. It was July 1974 and rumour was that Elenas family had headed back home to war-torn Cyprus.
Thirty years later, with two failed marriages behind her and her career as concert pianist in jeopardy, April decides to run away to Cyprus to find out what really happened to her friend.
Letters From Elena is a love story exploring family, identity and displacement through the faulty memories of three generations of women, each on a journey to make sense of their lives and the world around them.
Anne Hamilton co-founded a UK based charity, Bholas Children, supporting a home and school in Bangladesh for disabled children and remains a trustee today. The unpublished manuscript for her first novel, The Almost Truth, was the winner of the Irish Novel Fair.
