We are pleased to share the inspiring journey of Royal Holloway alumnus Kevin Mellor (BA English, 1974) and his latest book, Ramblings of a Free Man, which offers a heartfelt reflection on life, memories, and human connections.

Kevin Mellor's new book, Ramblings of a Free Man, explores life’s journey through a series of vignettes — some comedic, some tragic — revealing the complexities of fate, identity, and relationships. Through his writing, Mellor distills the essence of life, offering poignant insights shaped by his experiences in Britain, Europe, and India.
