  Author biography

  Jan Morris was born in 1926 of a Welsh father and an English mother, and when she is not travelling she lives with her partner Elizabeth Morris in the top left-hand corner of Wales, between the mountains and the sea.

  Her books include Coronation Everest, Venice, The Pax Britannica Trilogy (Heaven’s Command, Pax Britannica, and Farewell the Trumpets), and Conundrum. She is also the author of six books about cities and countries, two autobiographical books, several volumes of collected travel essays and, more recently, the unclassifiable Trieste and the Meaning of Nowhere. A collection of her travel writing and reportage from over five decades, A Writer’s World, was published in 2003.

  Praise for Jan Morris:

  ‘Exquisite, powerful and profoundly tender, just as fresh as the time it was written… I first read Coronation Everest in a tent in Uganda, and promptly wrote to the author, astonished by the achievement – it utterly changed my life. I feel gratitude and delight each time I open its pages.’ Simon Winchester on Coronation Everest

  ‘Morris’s imperial trilogy [are all] marvellous works of imagination and re-creation underpinned by travel and scholarship.’

  Ian Jack, editor of Granta, on The Pax Britannica Trilogy

  ‘A revelatory and moving memoir… Morris’s wise and painfully honest writing illuminates not only the confusion of sexuality, but the mystery of life itself. In a new introduction, Morris describes the book as a period piece. She does herself an injustice. It is a classic.’
