Marilyn Kaye

    19 giugno 1949

    Fin da giovane, questa autrice ha sentito una vocazione innata per la scrittura, un'attività che le è sempre sembrata naturale e giusta. Pur esplorando diverse carriere, tra cui l'insegnamento e la biblioteconomia, il suo più grande desiderio di diventare scrittrice è rimasto centrale. La sua vasta formazione accademica e la sua carriera nell'insegnamento della letteratura per l'infanzia e per ragazzi hanno profondamente informato la sua comprensione della narrazione. Ora, dedita alla scrittura a tempo pieno, trae ispirazione dalla bellezza di Parigi.

      A modern-day fairytale--a major motion picture starring Christina Ricci, Catherine O'Hara, James McAvoy, and Reese Witherspoon. Penelope Wilhern has everything a girl could want: A wealthy, socialite family, an enchanted bedroom and some of the coolest clothes around. There is only one problem: She was born into a cursed family and has the face of a pig. Hidden away from the world, Penelope now finds herself subjected to a string of snobby, blue-blooded bachelors in a desperate attempt to find her a husband in order to break the curse. Though she yearns for something greater, what's a girl to do when faced with a determined mother and her matchmaking sidekick? Hoping to snap a photo of the mysterious girl, mischievous tabloid reporter Lemon hires down-on-his-luck Max to pose as a prospective suitor and infiltrate the family. But when Max finds himself truly drawn to Penelope, he can't bring himself to expose and disappoint her, so he just disappears. Fed up with this latest betrayal and determined to live life on her own terms, Penelope decides to break free from her family and go out into the world in search of adventure. Hiding her true identity with a scarf, Penelope discovers a wondrous world where freedom opens her eyes to possibilities she never knew existed.
