Más información sobre el libro

Frances Burney's journey from illiteracy to celebrated author is marked by her determination to self-educate and her initial struggles against societal norms. After anonymously publishing her first novel, Evelina, in 1778, she gained recognition but faced personal challenges, including a demanding position at court and health issues. Her marriage to General Alexandre D'Arblay and the birth of their son highlighted her personal life, while her literary success continued with works like Camilla. Despite tragedies, including the loss of her husband and son, she remained a vibrant storyteller until her passing in 1840.
