Über den Autor
Athina Paris was born and went to school in Mozambique. Living her formative years in the confines of strict convents and boarding schools, she escaped by dreaming of faraway exotic places, and it created a deep curiosity about life and people. Feeling the need to liberate her inquisitive mind from conformist restraints, she took refuge in libraries and bookstores, leading to an avid interest in reading, storytelling, and a lifelong obsession with the written word and books.At age fourteen, she joined her family: father, mother, and a younger brother in South Africa, where she continued her schooling. Now able to read English, she quickly went through most of the classics, discovered ancient civilizations, and became fascinated with various mythologies; a love she has kept to this day. After her father left the family, she went to college to study Interior Design, but the pull of her true talent took her into Creative Writing. She followed that with Scriptwriting.Raised in a culture where meddling is seen as ‚caring‘, she became a spectator of human nature. Quiet and shy, she preferred recording conduct, rather than participate in what she calls ‚familial mass hysteria‘, building a treasure-trove of relationship observations from which she eventually drew backgrounds for the characters in her novels.Her epic romantic work takes her characters on voyages of self-discovery while dealing with catastrophic love lives and an imperfect world.
