Personal Quote:
Once my son was diagnosed with cancer, I had this huge amount of pain and anger about how this could happen to the child I loved so much. And I definitely directed that into The War Zone. I wrote it differently than anything I've written. I would rush back to the house while he was in chemotherapy and just write for two hours. I almost felt as if I were channeling it.
Trivia:
Stuart's novel, The War Zone, was awarded the Whitbread Prize for Best Novel in 1989, only to have the award withdrawn before the prize giving ceremony amid controversy involving one dissenting judge.
