Jane Harris

    1. január 1961

    Jane Harrisová je autorka, ktorá skúma zložitosť ľudských vzťahov a identity prostredníctvom pútavých príbehov. Jej štýl sa vyznačuje prenikavým vhľadom do psychológie postáv a schopnosťou zachytiť jemné nuansy každodenného života. Harrisová často píše o témach straty, pamäte a hľadania zmyslu v neuspokojivých okolnostiach, pričom jej postavy sa potýkajú s minulosťou a snažia sa nájsť svoje miesto vo svete. Jej diela sú cenené pre svoju emocionálnu hĺbku a literárnu zručnosť.

    • As she sits in her Bloomsbury home, with her two birds for company, elderly Harriet Baxter sets out to relate the story of her acquaintance, nearly four decades previously, with Ned Gillespie, a talented artist who never achieved the fame she maintains he deserved.Back in 1888, the young, art-loving, Harriet arrives in Glasgow at the time of the International Exhibition. After a chance encounter she befriends the Gillespie family and soon becomes a fixture in all of their lives. But when tragedy strikes - leading to a notorious criminal trial - the promise and certainties of this world all too rapidly disorientate into mystery and deception.Featuring a memorable cast of characters, infused with atmosphere and period detail, and shot through with wicked humour, Gillespie and I is a tour de force from one of the emerging names of British fiction.
