Apple Gidley

A nomadic life chronicled in Expat Life Slice by Slice, has seen Anglo-Australian Apple Gidley live and work in twelve countries. She is the author of six books, which reflect many of those cultures, and explore themes of loss, identity, family, and resilience. Finding Serenissima, her latest novel, takes place in Venice, and tells of a woman emerging from the strains of her husband’s Alzheimer’s and subsequent death. Annie’s Day, again published by Vine Leaves Press, will be released in November 2025.

Gidley currently lives in South Cambridgeshire, where she corrals The Ickleton Jotters.
