1993 novel by Helen Dunmore
Zennor in Darkness was the debut novel from English author Helen Dunmore, published in 1993. It won the 1994 McKitterick Prize[1] which is awarded for debut novels for writers over 40. Until that point, Dunmore was primarily a poet though she had published short stories and books for children. As a result of winning the prize, Penguin offered her a two-book deal and fiction became her focus.[2]
