OBSTACLES TO YOUNG LOVE - 27/03/2010

David's long-awaited new novel, OBSTACLES TO YOUNG LOVE, is published on June 10th, 2010, straight into paperback at £7.99.  This is his first novel for Harper, and he is very excited by it.  It is a romantic comedy, spanning thirty years in the lives of Timothy Pickering and Naomi Walls.  He is a budding taxidermist, following in his father's footsteps.  She dreams of a career on stage.  They fall in love at school but things do not work out for them, and they part.  During the years that follow their paths cross more than once, and eventually, after twenty five years and two marriages each, they meet again at their old school reunion.  Will they or won't they get together at last?  David says, 'Although this is a comedy it has serious things to say about faith and love.  I would call it a Humanist novel.'
