Yazar: Peter Curtis

Destek
I was born in Kosiče in Eastern Slovakia. Later, as a child in England I was enthralled by books like Treasure Island, King Solomon”s Mines and The 39 Steps. I dreamed of writing tales of adventure. As a young man, I trained at Guy”s Hospital, London, specializing in joint and back problems. But when I found that people”s lives were more interesting than inflammation I turned to family doctoring in the English countryside and began writing about dramatic or amusing incidents in my practice. Some of my short stories were published. The years passed and I moved with my family to the University of North Carolina. As my family elders and parents passed on, I inherited their photographs and documents and began to piece together the family”s Slovak history. They had been the enthusiastic citizens of a dynamic democratic country, Czechoslovakia, until it was swallowed by Germany during the great and tragic dislocation of WWII. What they went through moved me to write an adventure story close to my heart.
