Autorenporträt
Francis Brett Young was an English novelist, poet, playwright, composer, doctor, and soldier who lived from 29 June 1884 to 28 March 1954. In the Worcestershire town of Halesowen, Francis Brett Young was born. He attended Iona, a private school in Sutton Coldfield, for his early schooling. Given that both his mother and father are doctors, Thomas Brett Young, it was only fitting that he attend Epsom College, a school for doctors' sons. When his mother passed away when he was fourteen, he was present. Like many writers, he based his settings and characters on locations and jobs he was familiar with. There is a lot of information provided on the sea, warfare, and medical procedures taking place in locations as different as the West Midlands and West Country of England and South Africa. A number of his works from this time period, including his first published book Deep Sea (1914), is set in the West Midlands, while Portrait of Clare (1927) is set in Brixham. A portion of The Iron Age (1916) takes place at Ludlow, Shropshire. A group of interconnected novels, loosely based on the English West Midlands and Welsh Borders, served as Francis Brett Young's life's work.
