DM Denton's fourth novel, "The Dove Upon Her Branch, A Novel Portrait of Christina Rossetti," was published in July 2023 and focuses on the 19th Century poet and youngest sister of the mercurial Pre-Raphaelite poet Dante Gabriel Rossetti.
Her third novel, "Without the Veil Between, Anne Brontë: A Fine and Subtle Spirit," is about the youngest Brontë sister. DM Denton's first two novels, "A House Near Luccoli" and its sequel, "To A Strange Somewhere Fled" focus on Baroque music and its makers and are set in 17th century Genoa and England respectively. She has also published three Kindle short stories and an illustrated flower journal.
Her next novel will focus on the early 20th Century Shropshire novelist, poet, and essayist Mary Webb, best known for her novels "Gone to Earth" and "Precious Bane."
DM Denton is a native of Western New York. She finds her voice in poetry and prose, in silence and retreat, in truth and imagination. Writing from her love of language, through observation and study, inspired by music, art, nature, and the contradictions of the creative spirit, she loves to wander into the past to discover stories of interest and meaning for the present.
Her educational journey took her to a semester at Wroxton College, Oxfordshire, England (which features in her second novel). She stayed in the UK for sixteen years, in a yellow-stoned village with thatched cottages, duck pond, and twelfth century church and abbey turned Jacobean manor. She lived, for better or worse, right off the pages of Fielding, the Brontës, Austin, Hardy, DM Lawrence, and even Dickins, surrounded by the beautiful hills, woods, and fields of the Oxfordshire countryside.
She currently lives with her cats in a cozy log cabin in Western New York state.
DM Denton also is an artist. She has done the illustrations for the covers of her own published works, as well as interior illustrations.
