==Publication==
In 2003 the author invited his nephew Nigel Newton (founder of Bloomsbury Publishing) to lunch at the Garrick Club in London. His nephew was horrified to hear that Kenneth had written a novel as publishers are swamped with new novels; and being a relative Nigel was put in a difficult position but although not wanting to get involved he did pass it to his editorial staff; and it was published to great acclaim later that year.〔
