Julia Golding

    1 maart 1969

    Met een achtergrond die diplomatie en academisch onderzoek naar Engelse romantische literatuur omvat, brengt deze auteur een uniek perspectief in haar verhalen. Haar ervaringen, van internationale dienstverlening tot humanitaire belangenbehartiging, doordrenken haar verhalen met een diep begrip van wereldwijde complexiteiten en menselijke veerkracht. Ze creëert boeiende verhalen die vaak de diepgaande impact van conflicten op individuen onderzoeken, gedreven door een passie om licht te werpen op vaak over het hoofd geziene oorzaken. Haar onderscheidende stem en rijke tapijt van ervaringen bieden lezers een boeiende en tot nadenken stemmende literaire reis.
