GEORGETTE HEYER BIOGRAPHY - Softcover
Georgette Heyer remains an enduring international bestseller, read and loved by four generation of readers and extolled by today's bestselling authors. Despite her enormous popularity, she never gave an interview or appeared in public. Georgette Heyer wrote her first novel, The Black Moth, when she was seventeen, in order to amuse her convalescent brother. It was published in 1921 to instant success and has never been out of print. A phenomenon even in her own lifetime, to this day she is the undisputed queen of Regency romance. During ten years of research into Georgette Heyer's life and writing, Jennifer Kloester had unlimited access to Heyer's notebooks and private papers and the Heyer family records, and exclusive access to several untapped archives of Heyer's early letters.
