Notă biografică

Dorothy Strachey (1865-1960), also known as Dorothy Bussy, was a member of the Bloomsbury Group and the sister of the writer Lytton Strachey. She also became a great friend of André Gide, and translated his works into English. In 1903, she married the painter Simon Bussy, and they had one daughter. Olivia, which she published under a pseudonym in 1949 and which is largely based on her own experiences at boarding school in France, is her only novel. Her obituary in The Times (London) described her as a "charming, witty, amusing and amused person." André Aciman (introducer) is the New York Times bestselling author of Call Me by Your Name, Out of Egypt, and Enigma Variations, among many other works. He is distinguished professor of comparative literature at the Graduate Center of the City University of New York, where he is also the founder and director of the Writers' Institute.
