Beschreibung:
Anouchka Grose Forrester was born in Sydney, Australia, but has lived in London since the age of two. Her various vocations have included pop musician, jewelry designer, muralist, and lamp-shade maker. She is the author of seven books.
Our intrepid narrator is twentysomething, lives in London, and is armed with a master's in the history of punishment. Knowing the finer points of thumb screws and the rack doesn't quite put somebody on the fast track to success, however. So she takes work as a receptionist at the Academy of Material Science. Reading Remembrance of Things Past could fill some of the dull hours behind the desk, but she wants to write a book of her own.
