Margaret Drabble

The Wheeler Centre: Books, Writing and Ideas, onsdag, februar 26, 2014 kl. 11am

Margaret Drabble is a consummate chronicler of London, which she knows ‘as thoroughly as any novelist has ever known any city’, according to Joyce Carol Oates. Her insightful, affecting novels about the inner lives of conflicted women as they navigate the change-filled terrain of the 1960s onward (including ambition and motherhood), have been much loved and celebrated.

Her eighteenth novel, The Pure Gold Baby, explores single motherhood and disability, through the life of anthropologist Jess, who has an affair with a professor that results in ‘pure gold baby’ Anna, a special needs child who will need Jess’s care for the rest of her life, altering its course forever in complex ways.

The Australian declares Drabble – a former editor of the Oxford Companion to English Literature – ‘at the height of her game’ in this ‘adroit’ novel, one that has been compared to her 1965 classic The Millstone.

The Wheeler Centre presents two exciting events featuring Margaret Drabble – one in partnership with the Geelong Regional Library Corporation and Geelong Performing Arts Centre, where Ms Drabble will appear in conversation with local arts identity Kaz Paton, and a second, a morning tea chez nous. Tiffin is included in the ticket price, and those present will have a unique opportunity to share a bite and a cuppa with the great dame of literature. (rodneyvc)… (mere)

Renowned author Margaret Drabble has written a very original memoir, The Pattern in the Carpet, which pieces together the part that jigsaw puzzles play in her life.Anne Chisholm has written lives of Nancy Cunard and Rumer Godden. Margaret Drabble's most recent novel is The Sea Lady; she is also a biographer and critic. Giles Waterfield, a novelist and art historian, is the Chair of The Charleston Trust.

Kort biografi

Oplysninger fra den engelske Almen Viden Redigér teksten, så den bliver dansk.

MARGARET DRABBLE is the author of The Sea Lady, The Seven Sisters, The Peppered Moth, and The Needle's Eye, among other novels. For her contributions to contemporary English literature, she was made a Dame of the British Empire in 2008.

Drabble has famously been engaged in a long-running feud with her novelist sister, A.S. Byatt, over the alleged appropriation of a family tea-set in one of her novels. The pair seldom see each other and each does not read the books of the other.
