Anna Smaill has a background in English literature and music performance.

Her collection of poetry, The Violinist in Spring, was published in 2006, and her debut novel, The Chimes (Sceptre), is set in a future Britain where the written word has been banned, and people’s memories are controlled by music.

Anna Smaill talks to Kim Hill about music and memory.
