I thought of life's many bounties, to have known the extremities of joy and sorrow, love, success and failure, fame and slaughter, to have read in the newspapers that as a writer I was past my sell-by date, yet regardless, to go on writing and reading, to be lucky enough to live in these two intensities that have buttressed my whole life.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Edna O'Brien

Edna O'Brien (1930-2024) nasceu na pequena aldeia irlandesa de Tuamgraney, mudando-se depois para Dublin e, sucessivamente, para Londres onde deu início à sua carreira de escritora.
A censura de que os seus livros foram alvo, chegando a sua venda a ser proibida, de resto à semelhança dos seus ilustres antecessores James Joyce e Frank O'Connor, não impediu que a autora alcançasse fama e reconhecimento.
Foram-lhe atribuídos inúmeros prémios e distinções, incluindo o Irish PEN Lifetime Achievement Award for Literature, o American National Arts Gold Medal, a Ulysses Medal e o PEN/Nabokov Award for Achievement in International Literature.
