Beschreibung

Writing from a Small Country is a collection of fresh literature written by members of the Creative Writing Club of Luxembourg. From such diverse origins as the UK, the US, Canada, Italy, India, Germany and Mozambique, these expatriate lovers of literature gathered in the evenings in Luxembourg to mutually inspire one another. This anthology is a first offering of their formidable talent, including poetry, essays, short stories and extracts from novels in progress. It has everything from love and death, sibling rivalry and endings with a twist, tales of the supernatural and contemplations on the horrors of terrorism. Read in any order you like, laugh, cry, but savour each piece from beginning to end.

Über den Autor

To say Mary Carey led an exciting life would be putting it mildly. Born into what was once a wealthy Georgia family, she ended up in Texas as a child after the family's wealth was wiped out. She eventually eloped and married a man who would become a prison convict and escapee. Carey soon found herself on the run with her outlaw husband and pursued by the law.With her outlaw husband's capture and imprisonment, Carey moved on with her life and soon found love and established a stable family with a World War II veteran. She also became an award-winning writer, and plans were made to build a cabin cruiser and make a sea voyage from Texas to Alaska. Unfortunately, her husband passed away suddenly from a heart attack. While most women would have been devasted by the setbacks in life Mary Carey had been dealt, she decided to continue her late husband's dream and headed to Alaska. In Alaska, Carey became a pioneer, businesswoman, writer, photographer, and eventually a true Alaskan legend. She wrote hundreds of articles, wrote more than a dozen books, and in 1997 Eakin Press published Mary Carey's autobiography, My Three Lives in Headlines.Carey died suddenly at the age of 91, on June 18, 2004, at her beloved Mary's McKinley View Lodge in Trapper Creek, Alaska. She left a rich legacy and a loving family from a life well-lived.
