Phoebe Wynne studied Classics at Royal Holloway, University of London and Education at King’s College, London. She worked in education for eight years, teaching Classics in the south of England as well as English Language and Literature in Paris, France. Phoebe left the classroom to focus on her writing; she went on to hone her craft in writing classes in Los Angeles and in London. Phoebe has dual British and French nationality and spends her time between England and France. ‘MADAM’ is her debut novel.
Madam is my debut, but in truth it is my third novel. I wrote two novels in my twenties, the first was during my years at university, it was an experiment but I grew proud of it – an arrogant notion, since it was a pile of crap. The second was written midway through my teaching career, where I rewrote a traumatising experience I’d had. Both were fiction, with touches of the truth, but far too much…
MADAM is currently available everywhere books are sold. THE RUINS is currently available to pre-order in the UK and US.
