Georgina's latest work
This dazzling series shows that if the barriers can be vaulted there is true beauty to be had from the lesser-walked streets of literature. These works are both nourishing and inspiring, and a gift to any reader.
A chance break in a West End theatre production forces a derailed actress to confront her demons and offers her an opportunity to escape her past and live life to the full.
Cora, a once promising actress, is trapped by circumstances and immobilized by a disheartening career path, failed relationships and a battered sense of self. Set against a background of a country split by politics and disjointed through lives that are increasingly isolated and lonely, this is a short, sharp story of small victories and immense moral courage.
Reviews
A disjointed account of scenes and events in an actress’ life as she prepares to return to the stage. [An] excellent little book.
I loved the writing in this one, even though it was only 50 small pages it sucks you right in, and one part sent shivers down my spine! You root for Cora and can’t help but admire her will to carry on in the face of adversity.
Gorgeous and moving.

Wow. Writing of the highest order. Very few people put words together as beautifully as this.

She writes prose of rare vividness and lyricism, moving effortlessly between rapture and melancholy, and making startling connections between the past and the present. In Cora Vincent she creates a character and a story that speaks strongly to where we are now.
Georgina Aboud's Cora Vincent is bold and edgy with a cast of unforgettable characters.
