Lina Limantaitė
Vertėja, dviejų lietuvių–italų kalbų žodynų autorė, italų kultūros puoselėtoja. Jau dvidešimt metų dirba Italijos ambasadoje Lietuvoje. Kalba keturiomis užsienio kalbomis, išmaišiusi Viduržemio jūros regioną, itin pamilo Umbriją – jos viduramžiškus miestus, žmones, virtuvę bei tradicijas. Domėdamasi italų kultūra ir istorija, sukaupė daug vertingų žinių, kuriomis dalijasi su skaitytojais. „Be užburiančios miestelių atmosferos, kvapą gniaužia nuošaliose vietose įsikūrusios abatijos ir vienuolynai, žaliuojančios kalvos ir žydintys laukai, vinguriuojančios upės, tyvuliuojantys ežerai. Atrodo, jog tai – nutapyti paveikslai", – sako autorė.

Nicky Pellegrino
I was born and grew up near Liverpool, England. For a while I worked as a magazine journalist in London but then 21 years ago I came on holiday to New Zealand and met my future husband Carne Bidwill at a wedding. Now we live together near a beach in Auckland with our dogs Charlie the standard poodle and Lucy the pointer. I spend my time writing novels, working as a freelance journalist, riding my two horses, growing veges in my garden, cooking, trying to get other people to cook for me, eating and reading. There isn't much time for anything else except a little light housework.

Here's what Richard Madeley said. "The Tea Planter’s Wife is so much more than a conventional love story, with all its twists and turns and guilt and betrayal...deeply impressive. The fetid, steamy atmosphere of the tropics rises from these pages like a humid mist. We are on a tea plantation in 1920s Ceylon and 19 year old Gwendolyn Hooper is the new bride of the owner, a wealthy and charming widower. But her romantic dreams of marriage are overshadowed by echoes from the past – an old trunk of musty dresses; an overgrown and neglected grave -
