Autoren-Porträt von M. Z. Fairtlough
M.Z. Fairtlough is English by birth, Italian by childhood, and American by adoption. After working for many years in the life sciences sector, she came to write by accident, when she came across some old family photographs. “They told such a wonderful, compelling story that I wanted to share that,” she says of her first book, Love, War and Ice Cream. “In this saga-of-sorts I wanted to blend the personal and the historical into an exploration of love and duty, on the meaning of family, and about growing up in different times.”
