Abstract: Invisible was published by StreetBooks in 2010 (ISBN 978-0-9564242-0-4). This version is the uncut, unedited typescript. Before publication it was extensively edited and some 10,000 words were cut, partly on the advice of Keiren Phelan of Arts Council South East and Frank Cottrell Boyce. From the back cover: Tom, in his mid-thirties, sells his London pub chain (themed around Charles Dickens' novels), splits with his girlfriend and moves to rural west Oxfordshire. There he begins a relationship with Sarah, which he recounts later as a form of writing therapy. Having trained as a potter, Sarah owns an Oxford gallery and lives with Welsh Brit Art sculptor, Griff, in a battlemented Victorian tower. To her diaries she confides the history of her secret life. Invisible is a dystopian romance in which the characters struggle against obsession and misunderstandings in their quest for happiness. It is set against the topsy-turvy backdrop of New Labour's Britain. 'This is Posy Simmonds territory; we're among fretful middle-class types who take themselves very seriously and make an enormous meal of every bit of slap-and-tickle. That these people are bearable company is entirely down to the author's lively wit and acute understanding of the emotional landscape.' --Kate Saunders, The Times, 23rd October 2010
