Moonlight Sonata (eBook, ePUB)

A Story of Life in the Shadows

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Violet, born in 1900, loses family and friends and is treated as an outcast. To be socially accepted, she must face her own shadows and create a new self.

Innocence and optimism carry her through some dark times. She discovers a spirit guide and finds herself close to the people she loves. But in a house filled with secrets, how can she convince others she is sane and telling the truth?

Based on a family story, Violet's treatment as socially undesirable reects the fate of many women in the early twentieth century. It is by turns darkly comic and heart breaking.

Autorenporträt

Leonie Pearce was born in Sussex and lived in East Anglia and West Wales before moving to Yorkshire in 1986. She worked in a laundry, in cafes and restaurants, in the Bodleian Library, for the Royal Mail, in theatre and cinema box offices, as an artists' model and a teacher, before becoming a Senior Lecturer in Drama. The work took her into schools, devising theatre for children, always with a chance for audiences to participate. Performance projects included persuading the King of Winter to bring back the sun, staging a trial to determine whether Lady Macbeth was responsible for her actions, and being Dragon Detectives to help an absent-minded professor preserve habitats for magical creatures. She lives down a track in the Yorkshire Dales with her husband, David, close to their three grown up children and four grandchildren.
