Just go to a book store and walk to the shelves. Try to find Rosalind Ormiston at its right location. Not a chance.
Robert Newham, Guardian, about Lemon Garden

Reviews

A Novel that Plays with Life

Rosalind Ormiston continues where others put down their pens. Cool and relentless, she dissects modern life, weighs its components and then puts them back together to a fascinating literary organism. A soulful piece of writing, presented quite unsentimentally.

Madeleine Portner, Times, about Lemon Garden

Would We Have Laughed?

For a long time, British literature believed that morality did not have a place in literature. And it is true: Moral questions used to bore us endlessly, until they were asked by Rosalind Ormiston. With In Phase, she manages to make an accusation without any witnesses.

Gloria Hunter, The Independent, about In Phase

Interviews

There is just one reason | Reader's Choice

RD: But didn't you say you needed a reason to write?
CB: That is true, but you should be careful talking about it. It wouldn't even be possible to define it. (Laughs.) I hope I am never able to do that, because if I knew from the start exactly what my motivation was, I could just stop right there and then, go work in my yard and be happy.

The Small Town Agony | Guardian

Guardian: Rosalind Ormiston, it seems no matter what you try your hand at is a success. We in London read your books, shake our head, and would rather return back to our parties, but there is this small part in us that continues to bother us in a wonderful way, just like an olive that has fallen into a cocktail it does not belong into. We are upset all night long. And so finally we start reflecting. This basically describes the Ormiston effect...
CB: Thanks. I would call that calculated truth.
