THE KEEPER / GRIFFIN PENDRY
The stories matter.
The keeper less so.
Griffin Pendry
Griffin Pendry is an English writer of Celtic heritage, living in Cardiff. His interests lie in the stories that history has misplaced.
Ancient gods whose names have faded from memory. Religious texts that complicate familiar accounts. Folklore passed between generations long after its origins were forgotten. Strange events recorded by people who could not have known how their accounts would be read centuries later.
Pendry explores these fragments through historical research, mythology and speculative storytelling. His novels inhabit the uncertain territory between recorded history and the stories that survive outside it.
He reveals little about his private life, preferring the mysteries of the past to the attention of the present.
The Silent Summer is his first published novel.
