Krátky popis
he Invisible Woman by Claire Tomalin is the acclaimed story of
Nelly Ternan and Charles Dickens. It is the winner of the NCR Book
Award, the Hawthornden Prize and the James Tait Black Memorial
Prize. 'This is the story of someone who - almost - wasn't there,
who vanished into thin air. Her names, dates, family and
experiences very nearly disappeared from the record for good...'
Claire Tomalin's multi-award-winning story of the life of Nelly
Ternan and Charles Dickens is a remarkable work of biography and
historical revisionism that returns the neglected actress to her
rightful place in history as well as providing a compelling and
truthful portrait of the great Victorian novelist. For those who
enjoyed Samuel Pepys: The Unequalled Self and Charles Dickens: A
Life, The Invisible Woman is invaluable reading for lovers of
Charles Dickens, and for readers of biography everywhere. "Will
come to be seen as one of the crucial women's biographies because
of its vivid dramatization of the process by which women have been
written out of history and have been forced to deny their own
experiences". (Sean French, New Statesman). "The most original
biography I read this year.Starting out with scarcely the bare
bones of a story, Tomalin convinces by the end that she has got as
near to the truth as anyone will". (Anthony Howard, Sunday Times).
"A biography of high scholarship and compelling detective work".
(Melvyn Bragg, Independent). Claire Tomalin is the award-winning
author of eight highly acclaimed biographies, including: The Life
and Death of Mary Wollstonecraft, Shelley and His World, Katherine
Mansfield: A Secret Life, The Invisible Woman: The Story of Nelly
Ternan and Charles Dickens, Mrs Jordan's Profession, Jane Austen: A
Life, Samuel Pepys: The Unequalled Self, Thomas Hardy: The
Time-Torn Man and, most recently, Charles Dickens: A Life. A former
literary editor of the New Statesman and the Sunday Times, she is
married to the playwright and novelist Michael Frayn.
