Marian Keyes
I want to devote this new entry to one of my favourite writers: Marian Keyes.
Marian Keyes is an Irish international bestselling author. She started writing short stories in 1993 "out of the blue".
Her first novel was "Watermelon" which was an immediate success in Ireland and later in the USA.
To date, she has published seven novels: "Watermelon", "Lucy Sullivan is getting married", "Rachel's holiday", "Last chance saloon", "Sushi for beginners" "Anybody out there?" and "The other side of the story". Her next novel, "The Charming man" will be out in May 2008
Marian's novels are related to women who are in their thirties and face problems such as divorces, loneliness, alcoholism, depression or even all together. But above all, she talks about the inner personality of a generation of women who find themselves between a generation of housewives and a generation of skilled and independent women.
Up to now, I've read Angels, Sushi for beginers, Watermelon, Lucy Sullivan is getting married and at the moment I am reading Last Chance Saloon. My favourite one is Angels, maybe because it was the first novel I read from Marian Keyes.
If you like Marian Keyes's novels and you want to join this blog, you are very welcome to join this discussion and if you haven't read any of them I encourage you to do it!
