    Lifeboat Girls Book 2

    Rachel was born to English 10-pound-pom parents in sub-tropical Brisbane, Australia, and when the family moved back to Poole, Dorset, she was just 5 years old. She then grew up against the stunning backdrop of Poole Harbour where she sailed and played on the beaches of Brownsea Island and Studland, and walked across the Purbeck Hills, all of which inspired her imagination and provided the setting of her debut historical fiction novel set in WWII. Rachel’s first husband, a Poole RNLI lifeboatman, died in a diving accident in 1992. Rachel married her second husband in 1996 and they moved to Brisbane where they raised their three children. Rachel studied for a BA in Literature and worked in publishing as an editor before writing her first novel. She is almost a Secondary English and History teacher and is writing the second of three books contracted by Boldwood – all of which feature WWII and Poole.

    Wie Peggy Guggenheim, eine der glamourösesten Figuren des 20. Jahrhunderts, zu der legendären Kunstsammlerin und Ikone wurde, die wir heute kennen Schon als Mädchen rebelliert Peggy Guggenheim gegen die Etikette der New Yorker Upperclass. Nach dem Tod ihres geliebten Vaters ist sie kaum erwachsen, als sie die jüdische Familiendynastie verlässt, um sich in das aufregende Paris der 1920er Jahre zu stürzen: Pernod mit Djuna Barnes, Shootings mit Man Ray, Affären mit Samuel Beckett und Max Ernst. Ihre mondänen Partys schreiben Geschichte. Doch Peggy ist entschlossen, der Welt mehr zu hinterlassen. Von New York über Paris bis nach Venedig erzählt 'Peggy' von der leidenschaftlichen Suche nach persönlicher Freiheit und vor allem vom Glauben einer jungen Frau an die transformative Kraft der Kunst - und an sich selbst. Rebecca Godfrey widmet sich in ihrem letzten Roman einem bislang unerzählten Lebensabschnitt der legendären Kunstsammlerin und Milliarden-Erbin Peggy Guggenheim. Die triumphale Geschichte einer Selbstermächtigung.   Rebecca Godfrey starb, kurz bevor sie 'Peggy' vollendet hatte.
