Autorenporträt

Keith Plummer was born on the Suffolk Coast, moved to Essex as a child and, some years after early retirement, relocated to a converted Grade II listed barn in a very small Leicestershire village, where he is able to indulge his passion for long country walks. Other interests range from studying the ancient world to modern-day cosmology, a love of travel (he has been to 99 different countries) and the natural world, modern technology and Indian cinema - an interest he enjoys when staying at his second home in Jaipur. He modestly claims to "get by" in Hindi. One other pastime is researching and writing biographies of family members - both past and present. He is married with one daughter and two grandsons. Until November 2021 when he published "Tales of the Completely Unexpected", a collection of short stories in the style of Roald Dahl, his previous writings had all been of a non-fiction nature in the scientific press, so "From the Grave to the Cradle" is his first long-overdue full-length novel.
