Richard Ruxton Author

Richard Ruxton grew up in the Irish town of Arklow, as did his wife and family. They emigrated to England where he surprised himself with a successful career in industrial engineering, college lecturing and consulting. He and his wife now live in rural France, where Richard finds inspiration for writing and other activities, such as sampling local wines, designed to distract from any real work. A life-long lover of pirate radio, classic rock music and obscure cultural references, he has drawn on his long-forgotten duties at a water treatment plant for the title of this memoir. River Clarified Filtered Soft is his first book.
