Information of Author |
Rory MacLean has known three Berlins: West Berlin, where he made movies with David Bowie and Marlene Dietrich East Berlin, where he researched his first best seller STALIN'S NOSE and the unified capital where he lives and works today. His nine books have challenged and invigorated creative non-fiction writing, and - according to the late John Fowles - are among works that 'marvellously explain why literature still lives'. He has won awards from the Canada Council and the Arts Council of England as well as a Winston Churchill Travelling Fellowship, and was nominated for the International IMPAC Dublin Literary prize. He has also written and presented over 50 BBC radio programmes and is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature. |
