About the Author
Elizabeth Bowen was born in Dublin in 1899, the only child of an Irish lawyer and land-owner. She travelled a great deal, dividing most of her time between London and Bowen's Court, the family house in County Cork which she inherited. Her first book, a collection of shorts stories, Encounters, was published in 1923. The Hotel (1926) was her first novel. She was awarded the CBE in 1948, and received honorary degrees from Trinity College, Dublin in 1949, and from Oxford University in 1956. The Royal Society of Literature made her a Companion of Literature in 1965. Elizabeth Bowen died in 1973.
Review
"A still ludicrously underrated genius of 20th-century British-Irish writing" -- Simon Schama "One of the last century's greatest woman writers" * Guardian * "Her writings convey the flavour of literary London in the Thirties and Forties" * Observer * "A matchless writer" * Independent *
