Nancy Carson

    Diese Autorin schöpft Inspiration aus der menschlichen Natur und Beziehungen, wobei Charaktere und Situationen oft dem Leben entspringen, wenn auch ausgeschmückt. Ihre Geschichten entfalten sich auf der breiten Leinwand menschlicher Erfahrung und untersuchen männlich-weibliche Interaktionen mit Einblicken, die sie durch lebenslanges Beobachten von Menschen gewonnen hat. Das Schreiben ist für sie ein erfüllendes, aber einsames Unterfangen, und trotz anfänglicher Ablehnungen hat sie durchgehalten, um den Lesern Romane anzubieten, deren Entstehung sie sichtlich genießt.
