For this blog I want to write about someone who I admire a lot, she is not very famous because she is a contemporary writer but i love the way she write. She has an amazing style in her writing.Im talking about JOAN BRADY, she was born in California in 1939, she is the first woman and so far the only American, to win Britain's prestigious Whitbread Book of the year award. Her parent were both writers and her brother too, but the curious thing about Joan is that she was very bad at school and she couldn't read until she was 8th; the only thing she was good it was Ballet, Joan used to dance with San Francisco Ballet and New York city Ballet.
Joan initiated wrinting after she had an enounter with a man that months later she will be married, the writer Dexter Masters, then they had a son named Alexander. Her first novel came out after she was 35 years, it was an autobiography called The unmaking of a dancer, even she write with a complex structure, people can understand what is she writing about. After this, her husband got sick so, she spend ten years writing another novel because she put only emphasis in him, so, she finally put it aside when Dexter's health failed, her principle issue in that moment was him and she accompanied him until his dead. After this, she spend another year writing it and renamed it Theory of war, which won the whitbread prize.
Then she wrote two more novels Death comes for peter pan which caused a lot of controversy, and the violent thriller Bleedout.
She started having nerve problems when a local industry began pollating the air of her house; a few moths later he finished her second thriller Venom.
She haven't published more books after this Venom, but she is thinking in start writing again a new thriller to complete the trilogy.
