Autorenporträt
Piu DasGupta was born in Calcutta, India, and grew up in India and the UK. She studied English at Oxford University and worked in several serious professions and places before following a long-nurtured dream to be a writer in a garret in Paris. She now lives in Paris although not (thankfully) in a garret, with her family, two cats, and numerous pigeons who flap to the kitchen windowsill for regular snacks. When she finally grows up, she hopes to fulfill her ultimate fantasy and run away to join the circus.
