Biographie de l'auteur
Romy Wood taught in comprehensive schools for ten years, and as Head of Drama staged productions from Macbeth to Les Miserables. In 2006, she gained an MA from Cardiff University in the Teaching and Practice of Creative Writing and was then awarded a writers bursary by Academi to continue her writing. She works as an Associate Lecturer for the Open University and facilitates therapeutic writing groups. She enjoys travelling, especially to Romania and Thailand where she has family and friends. Romy Wood lives in Cardiff with her husband and three children, and she attributes her successes as much as her disasters to being bipolar.

Bamboo Grove (Paperback)
Vendeur : Grand Eagle Retail, Bensenville, IL, Etats-Unis
Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. A pseudo-Buddhist monk, an illegal immigrant, a teenager with precarious mental health and a quixotic pair of young businessmen chancing their luck. All of them intricately, messily bound by the unique and rather dubious organization that is Eastern Vision. The empire has one foot in the seedier realms of metaphysical Surrey and the other amongst the slums and skyscrapers of Bangkok. From faux-Eastern objets to real estate, client-centred sperm-donation to gypsy magic, the tangled fortunes of Eastern Vision go from strength to strength and back again. Yingyang, first child of the dysfunctional troupe, tells us the story; from the day her mother Jessica tripped on a paving slab and never looked back, to her own quirky upbringing and island exile. In Bangkok, enigmatic entrepreneur Bristol takes the helm and in London, Romanian refugee Pippa claws her way daintily up the ladder to exploit the company's potential for her own ends. Moses, who prefers not to mention that he was born in Surrey, surrounds himself in mystic exoticism, building his own outrageous business-within-a-business.As they battle for control - of the company, of each other and of themselves - they hurtle towards an end none of them could have predicted. A black comedy about sex, financial boom and bust, corruption, global migration, fertility and altruism. A pseudo-Buddhist monk, an illegal immigrant, a bipolar teenager and a quixotic pair of young businessmen are all bound by Eastern Vision, an empire selling everything from faux-Eastern objets to real estate, from client-centred sperm-donation to gypsy magic. A black comedy set in Bangkok about financial collapse, corruption and altruism. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
