A Best Book of the Year: San Francisco Chronicle, Seattle Times
Winner of the Plutarch Award for Best Biography

Penelope Fitzgerald, one of the most quietly brilliant novelists of the twentieth century, was a great English writer whose career didnâ‚¬t begin until she was nearly sixty.Â Her life was marked by dramatic twists of fate, moving from a bishopâ‚¬s palace to a sinking houseboat to a last, late blaze of renown. Her exquisite novelsâ‚¬"short, spare masterpiecesâ‚¬"would go on to win some of the most coveted awards in literature: the Booker Prize and the National Book Critics Circle Award.Â Now, in an impeccable match of talent between biographer and subject, Hermione Lee gives us this remarkable writerâ‚¬s story.
