Anna is the author of The Pink Hotel, long-listed for the Orange Prize 2012. Set in Los Angeles following a young girl’s investigation into the love affairs of her dead mother, it is being made into a film directed by academy award winner Anna Paquin. ‘An elegant noirish mystery,’ said The Independent. ‘Completely engrossing,’ said Nylon Magazine. ‘Astonishingly good,’ said The Times. She has lived in Berlin, Los Angeles and Beijing. She writes about travel for The Observer Magazine, and can currently be found investigating natural history museums for her new novel.
