Lucy M. Boston

    Lucy M. Boston si è affermata come una romanziera la cui carriera letteraria è sbocciata interamente dopo i sessant'anni, diventando celebre soprattutto per la sua evocativa serie "Green Knowe". Le sue narrazioni, immerse nell'atmosfera di un'antica dimora di campagna e del suo giardino incantato, intrecciano in modo fluido realismo e bassa fantasia, creando mondi avvolgenti per i lettori. Oltre ai suoi successi letterari, Boston fu anche un'abile artista e ricamatrice, i cui diversi talenti arricchirono la trama della sua scrittura. La sua distintiva voce letteraria tardiva e la sua incrollabile dedizione al suo mestiere hanno dato vita a opere durature che continuano ad affascinare.
