Contributor Bio(s): Eliot, George: - George Eliot, the pen name of Mary Ann, or Marian, Evans (1819-1880), was an English Victorian novelist of the first rank. An assistant editor for the Westminster Review from 1851 to 1854, she wrote her first fiction in 1857 and her first full-length novel, Adam Bede, in 1859. In her writing, she was chiefly preoccupied with moral problems, especially the moral development and psychological analysis of her characters. She is known for her sensitive and honest depiction of life and people in works that are acclaimed as classics. Paton, Laura: -Laura Paton trained at LAMDA where she won the St. Philip's Prize for poetry and the Michael Warre Award. She has toured the UK extensively in productions as varied as The Two Gentlemen of Verona and Oscar Wilde's Salomé. Among her audiobook recordings are Virginia Woolf's Orlando, Dumas' The Lady of the Camellias, and Grimms' Fairy Tales. |
