Melissa Jensen

    Cette auteure puise son inspiration dans l'attrait durable de la littérature classique, réimaginant ses idéaux romantiques et ses conventions sociales pour un public contemporain. Son écriture est empreinte d'un amour pour le brouillard atmosphérique et les maisons vibrantes de son éducation à San Francisco, influencée par sa mère artiste et son père architecte. Elle se plaît à imaginer comment des personnages littéraires bien-aimés navigueraient dans le monde moderne, combinant l'esprit avec une observation fine de la nature humaine. Son œuvre explore les thèmes de la croissance personnelle et de l'identité, caractérisée par une voix distinctive qui interagit de manière ludique avec l'histoire littéraire et la vie quotidienne.

      Sixteen-year-old Catherine Vernon has been stranded in London for the summer-no friends, no ex-boyfriend Adam the Scum (good riddance!), and absolutely nothing to do but blog about her misery to her friends back home. Desperate for something-anything-to do in London while her (s)mother's off researching boring historical things, Cat starts reading the 1815 diary of Katherine Percival her mom gives her-and finds the similarities between their lives to be oddly close. But where Katherine has the whirls of the society, the parties and the gossip over who is engaged to who, Cat's only got some really excellent English chocolate. Then she meets William Percival-the uber-hot descendant of Katherine-and things start looking up . . .
