This is the website of Jessica Mann,

author of novels, non-fiction and journalism.

My books were first published in the UK, but most have appeared in the USA, been translated into other languages and are available in large print or audio format. I have also written many newspaper features, interviews, book reviews and travel articles, broadcast on TV and radio and appeared at book fairs and festivals. At present I’m reviewing crime fiction for the monthly magazine, The Literary Review.

You can also read some of my books on your e-reader.


My next book,  THE FIFTIES MYSTIQUE will be published by Quartet Books in March 2012.


My latest book is:
