Liane Florin
The author, a retired North London GP, was born and bred in France (Paris, where else?) shortly before World War II. Having survived the German occupation, she studied Medicine, still in Paris.
It was only after this that she met her British husband and came to live in this country for the rest of her life. Paris is still her “village” and she claims to have a foot on each side of the Channel although she has chosen to write mostly in English.
