BRENDAN FRAIN
BIO
Brendan Frain grew up in the middle ages—that’s the 1950s—in an England still suffering from post-war shortages and rationing. The scenes of American abundance on black and white tv gripped a young boy’s imagination. Here was a magic kingdom of novelty and adventure where everything seemed possible. Those early impressions formed the seedbed for his debut series of novels set on the American plains.
After moving to Canada in 1972, Brendan attended the University of Manitoba in Winnipeg. It was there that he met the great love of his life, Satguna (‘Sat’) Devi, who inspired and encouraged him up until her untimely death in 2019. Brendan lives in a bayside suburb of Melbourne where he walks, listens to music, watches Netflix, and mulls his own mortality.
