THE LADY AND THE POET
Book ID/图书代码： 05380007B19559
English Summary/英文概要： Undone is the love story of John Donne and Ann More, a love that flourished against all the odds and in spite of vehement opposition from his lovers and patrons and her family, and resulted in a marriage of true minds and “true plain hearts”. It’s a gorgeous, compelling love story, and a beautiful and atmospheric portrayal of a world that is as foreign to us as it is beguiling.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 描寫17世紀英國著名詩人約翰•唐恩(John Donne)與他一輩子的摯愛安•摩爾(Ann More)的動人愛情故事。約翰不顧來自摩爾家中、雇主依格頓爵士的強力反對，與17歲的安秘密地在好友見證下結婚。約翰不僅為此失去工作，憤怒的摩爾爵士拒絕承認婚約的合法性，憤而將約翰及其一干好友起訴使之鋃鐺入獄。對安的強烈情感、崎嶇的愛情故事與艱苦的生活造就約翰許多偉大作品。

About the Author/作者介绍： Maeve Haran, an Oxford law graduate and former TV producer, has written eleven contemporary novels, including the worldwide bestseller HAVING IT ALL, which has sold round the world and been translated into twenty-six languages, as well as THE FROTH ON THE CAPPUCCINO, evoking life’s small pleasures.
She took up writing after the birth of her second child and combines it with journalism and writing short stories. She lives in north London with her Scottish TV executive husband and their three children and has a cottage in the Sussex downs.
She became obsessed with John Donne, the metaphysical poet, while at her convent boarding school, and it is this lifelong passion which has inspired and informed her first historical novel, OF AIR AND ANGELS.Of Air and Angels (previously titled UNDONE) represents a very exciting new direction for her writing and has the potential to make her into a roaring success all over again.
