Sophie Kinsella
Nato: December 12, 1969 – London, England, United Kingdom
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.
Biografia e Percorso dell'Autore
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.
