経歴と著者の歩み
Kate Morton is an Australian novelist whose fiction grew out of an intensely bookish childhood and a parallel early interest in performance. Born and raised in Australia, she grew up on Tamborine Mountain in southeast Queensland, attended a small country school, and spent much of her childhood reading, inventing make-believe worlds with her sisters, and developing the historical curiosity that would later animate her novels. Before fiction became her main vocation, she studied speech and drama, earning a Licentiate in Speech and Drama from Trinity College London and completing a summer Shakespeare course at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art. She then returned to literary study at the University of Queensland, where she completed a Bachelor of Arts with first-class honours in 1999 and a Master of Philosophy in 2002, focusing on Victorian literature. The central early turning point in her career came when, while still acting in community productions, she realized that storytelling on the page mattered more to her than performance on the stage.
