Über diesen Titel

Biografía del autor

Claire has had seventy-two books published - some historical sagas, some light romantic novels, some children's books, some murder mysteries. She is now in her eighty-fifth year and this, her autobiography, makes fascinating reading. During her life, which she has recounted with much humour, some pathos and candour, she has never lacked for 'good ideas', which, if they did not end up as successful sagas, often turned out to be disasters. Her wartime experiences as Waaf in the top-secret radar Filters Rooms bring both love and tragedy to her teens and twenties; her love of children and animals shine through both her work and private life. Current details are covered on the Internet through Google (148references in Amazon) under 'Claire Lorrimer'. There are three titles currently awaiting publication and over twenty titles currently in large print in libraries. Also all her books are available on audio. Claire's most recent saga was published two years ago and a 'whodunnit' last year. Her autobiography, like her books, is a page turner and her fans, who ensure she remains steadfastly in the top hundred most widely read authors in the libraries, will enjoy this story every bit as much if not more, as will her regular readers in America and elsewhere in the world.

Reseña del editor

"You Never Know", Claire Lorrimer's autobiography, spans the 20th century. A "Daily Mirror" reviewer described one of her many books as a 'slice of life'. "You Never Know" is the whole rich tapestry of a life overflowing with adventure, humour, tragedy, love, joy and disasters. She paints vivid images of her childhood when her mother, the famous author Denise Robins, entertained pre- and post-war literati at her weekend country house parties. Armed with an old typewriter, a vivid imagination and a passion for life, Claire started writing books during the war whilst in the WAAF. She is a past master at crafting a sentence to evoke more than just an image; every scene captures the emotion of the moment. She has had a remarkable career and "You Never Know" is the engrossing story of a fascinating life.
