Sophie Kinsella

生年: December 12, 1969 – London, England, United Kingdom

ソーシャルリンク:

Sophie Kinsella is a British novelist known for humorous contemporary women’s fiction centered on consumer culture, relationships, and identity. She is best known for the Shopaholic series, especially Confessions of a Shopaholic, and novels such as Can You Keep a Secret? Her internationally bestselling books have been widely translated and adapted for film.

経歴と著者の歩み

Sophie Kinsella, the pen name of Madeleine Sophie Wickham, was born in London in 1969, one of three daughters of teachers. A gifted pianist and violinist, she went to New College, Oxford, intending to study music, then changed course after a year and completed a degree in philosophy, politics and economics. Writing was not, by her own later account, a fixed childhood ambition. The decisive early turn came after university, when she worked as a financial journalist and began to see how the rhythms, anxieties, and absurdities of modern working life could be transformed into fiction.
