Description
The first biography of one of the greatest English writers of the last century, this book tells the story of Elizabeth Taylor, the lesser-known author who lived and worked in Buckinghamshire. Published in 1945, her novel At Mrs. Lippincote's coincided with the film career of an actress also named Elizabeth Taylor.
Nicola Beauman draws on a wealth of previously undiscovered material to bring this remarkable woman to life. A renowned author herself, Beauman has written extensively on the history of women's writing and founded Persephone Books in 1999.
This biography offers a fresh perspective on a fascinating figure, shedding new light on her life and work.
