A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur

Wendy Perriam has been writing since the age of 5, completing her first novel, 'A Pony At Last', on her 12th birthday. Expelled from her convent boarding school for heresy, she escaped to St Anne's College, Oxford, where she read History, and also trod the boards. After a variety of off-beat jobs, ranging from artist's model to carnation debudder, she embarked on a career in advertising, writing poems and short stories in her free time. Perriam feels that her many conflicting life experiences - strict discipline and swinging-sixties wildness, marriage and divorce, infertility and motherhood, poverty and wealth, illness and near madness, spiritual ecstasy and religious despair - have all helped to shape her as a writer. Lying is her 14th novel. She is currently working on a collection of short stories, entitled Dreams, Demons and Desire, to be published by Peter Owen in January 2001.
