Over de auteur (1989)

Born in 1948, author Janet Hobhouse was raised in New York City and educated at Oxford. As an adult, she lived in both London and New York City. In the 1980's, she was primarily an art critic, which is evident in her two non-fiction works: The Bride Stripped Bare, an art study on the female nude, and Everybody Who Was Anybody: A Biography of Gertrude Stein. She also wrote four novels: Nellie Without Hugo, Dancing in the Dark, November, and The Furies. She died from ovarian cancer in 1991 at the age of forty-two.
