About the Author
T.J.Armstrong was born in Essex in 1957. He read Modern Languages at Oxford and studied Philosophy at London University. He has translated philosophical works from French and German into English and has a passionate interest in music, playing keyboards and singing in a Canterbury based blues band. At the start of his professional career, he taught French and German in Bedford and is currently Head of Modern Languages at the King's School, Canterbury. He is married and has two children. His first novel, Walter and the Resurrection of G, won the Authors’ Club best first novel of the year award, and his second novel Cecilia's Vision was published in the UK and in Germany. Both reflect his fascination with the Middle Ages, with poetry, and with unusual philosophical takes on life.
Review
"Overall, a good read and one cannot help getting caught up with Walter and his ambitions." (Historical Novels Review)
"It's a novel that not only mixes historical fantasy with a modern day twist, its ingredients include something of the author in its inclusion of music and languages... There are moments of historical insight as we rub shoulders with Holy Roman Emperor Friedrich I, the Cathars and the period's religious intolerance, as well as the delights of 12th century France, Spain, and Germany. Here the language side of the author comes in as we're shown texts and song lyrics in various tongues (all translated for our benefit too) as we watch the lad Walter grow up." (The Bookbag)
