About Katarina West
Katarina West was born in Helsinki, Finland, into a bilingual family that in addition to humans consisted of dogs, cats, horses, guinea pigs, canaries, rabbits and – thanks to her biology teacher mother – stuffed owls and squirrels.She spent time travelling in Africa, Asia and Latin America, and went on to study at Queen Mary and Westfield College in London and the European University Institute in Florence, where she completed a PhD in political science and published a book based on it, Agents of Altruism. During those student years she started work as a journalist, and continued writing for various Finnish magazines and newspapers for over ten years, writing on various topics from current events and humanitarian issues to celebrity interviews and short stories. She also briefly worked as a university lecturer on humanitarian issues in Northern Italy.Katarina lives in an old farmhouse in Chianti with her husband and son and when not writing, she is fully immersed in Tuscan country life, from jammaking and olive-picking to tractor maintenance. Witchcraft Couture is her first novel and, unlike the unearthly clothes in its pages, her outfits are not shining.

ReplyDeleteThis sounds amazing.
ReplyDeleteI love the title. I wouldn't have thought of Witchcraft Couture as a fashion and witchcraft story. A very unlikely pair but interesting enough for a story.
