Jennifer Kloester on Georgette Heyer
About
GEORGETTE HEYER, THE WOMAN AND HER WORLDIt’s a rare author whose books still sell more than fifty years after their death, but Georgette Heyer is one of the chosen few. Heyer’s novels are delicious, entertaining page-turners filled with living, breathing characters whose lives and stories leap off the page and whose conversations are replete with their author’s rapier wit and keen sense of humour. But who was Georgette Heyer and how did she come to create the Regency genre of historical fiction so beloved by readers everywhere? This talk will reveal the very private woman, her journey from successful teenage author to international bestseller, and explain how she came to the Regency era that she made her own. Whether you’ve loved her forever or have never read her books, this talk will introduce you to one of fiction’s great authors.
Jennifer Kloester is the bestselling author and a Patroness of the International Heyer Society.
