Backstage

Donna Leon

£10.99

Donna Leon's memoir, 'Wandering Through Life', gave her legions of fans a colourful tour through her life, from childhood in New Jersey to adventures in China and Iran, to her love of Venice and opera. Nowhere, however, did she discuss her writing life. In 'Backstage', Donna reveals her admiration for, and inspiration from, the great crime novelists Ruth Rendell and Ross Macdonald, examining their approach to storytelling as she dissects her favourite books of theirs.
