Lamorna Ash is a freelance author, editor and journalist. She writes for The New Statesman, Guardian, Financial Times and Vogue. Lamorna graduated in English and has a Social and Cultural Anthropology Masters. Apparently she can ‘gut most kinds of fish, quite slowly’! Her first book Dark, Salt Clear: life in a Cornish Fishing Town (2020) was a BBC Radio 4 Book of the Week; it was shortlisted for the Wainwright Prize and won the Somerset Maugham Award. Her latest critically-acclaimed book is Don’t Forget We’re Here for Forever: a New Generation’s Search for Religion (2025). Lamorna journeyed across Britain to explore why, in an age of apathy and disconnection, many young people are turning to faith for spiritual sustenance.
