About this product

Product Information

She is the creator of probably the most famous - and certainly the best-loved - character in contemporary fiction. She is also the author of her own escape from an existence on the brink of poverty, with no job and few prospects. On the one hand there is J.K. Rowling, who wrote, and continues to write, the Harry Potter novels,a literary phenomenon. O the other, there is Joanne Rowling, a quiet, dreamy, rather shy woman whose brilliance in translating her dreams into prose transformed her own life. JK - The Story of J.K. Rowling details her life from her childhood and schooling in the West Country; the effect upon her of the wasting illness that struck down her mother; her time at Exeter University; her long-term relationship and her career and marriage, which collapsed after thirteen months, leaving her to return to Britain with her baby daughter. The Harry Potter novels are more than fantasy: there is a toughness to the writing, a sense of realism and a questing morality that go beyond mere adventure, magic and the battle between good and evil. How those books came to be written, and the influences that shaped both them and their author, form the core of this inspirational biography.

    Safe arrival, after book delayed in the post, through no fault of the seller. Book in very fair condition, especially at the price: would be even better if packaged better than in a single very thin plastic bag, which has allowed an edge of the book to get crumpled during delivery. On balance, good transaction, good seller.

    Item arrived quickly, well packed and in good condition. Seller had (very) accurately described the condition of the book and I appreciate it (nothing worse than buying a book that says as new and then finding out it's an ex-library copy - have had that happen on eBay more than once). Would recommend this seller

    Poor packaging (sent in a plastic bag), but I was just very fortunate to receive it in good condition. Accurate description and excellent price.
