Barbara Ker Wilson encontró su vocación en el mundo de la escritura y la edición desde joven, acompañando a su padre a una editorial. Sus experiencias formativas, especialmente durante la guerra, moldearon su perspectiva, llevándola a explorar temas de desplazamiento y nuevos comienzos. A través de su prosa única, Wilson profundiza en las complejidades de la experiencia humana y los desafíos de forjar una identidad en paisajes desconocidos.





Tells the story behind the famous Chinese porcelain pattern, a love story about a rich Mandarin girl who defies her arrogant father to run away with a young clerk.
The magic of the stories in this book is very powerful, and in the hands of a master storyteller they have the freshness of stories told for the first time. There are traditional tales of great beauty, such as "Tam Lin" and "MacCodrum of the Seals"; exciting adventures--"The Adventures of IainDireach" and "The Ailp King's Children"; and shrewd, simple fables like "The Fox" and "The Little Bannock", all of which will delight small children.
