Jenny Glanfield
Agent: Sian Ellis-Martin
Jenny Glanfield’s early years were spent at her parents’ market garden. She subsequently studied German at school and college and her first job was in Germany, after which she lived and worked in Paris, Austria and Italy, before marrying and settling in England, where her jobs usually used her German language skills. Following an arduous work trip to Germany, she realised there was a book inside her that needed to be written.
That book eventually turned into three, spanning over a century of German history, its setting the fictitious, prestigious Berlin Hotel Quadriga and charting the lives of its owners and guests over several generations.
She has since written two more novels, PORTRAITS IN AN ALBUM and THE CUCKOO WOOD.
