About this audiobook

Po tragicznej śmierci obojga rodziców wiodące dotąd idylliczne życie Magdalen i Nora Vanstone odkrywają nagle, że urodziły się jako nieślubne dzieci i na własnej skórze przekonują się, co oznacza piętno społeczne. Pozbawione jakiegokolwiek spadku, wyrzucone z domu, w którym spędziły dzieciństwo, i odarte nawet z prawa do własnego nazwiska, muszą nauczyć się radzić sobie same. Zrównoważona Nora postanawia zostać guwernantką, ale jej dynamiczna i niezależna siostra Magdalen ma inny pomysł: zdecydowana za wszelką cenę odzyskać majątek rodziców i swoje dobre imię, planuje zemstę. W osiągnięciu celu mają jej pomóc niebanalna uroda i talent aktorski oraz niejaki kapitan Wragge – daleki krewny jej matki i zawodowy oszust.

Wilkie Collins

William Wilkie Collins was born in London in 1824, the son of a successful and popular painter. Collins himself demonstrated some artistic talent and had a painting hung in the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition in 1849, but his real passion was for writing. On leaving school, he worked in the office of a tea merchant in the Strand but hated it. He left and read law as a student at Lincoln's Inn but already his writing career was flowering. His first novel, Antonina, was published in 1850. In 1851, the same year that he was called to the bar, he met and established a lifelong friendship with Charles Dickens. While Collins' fame rests on his best known works, The Woman in White and The Moonstone, he wrote over thirty books, as well as numerous short stories, articles and plays. He was a hugely popular writer in his lifetime. Collins was an unconventional individual: he never married but established long term liaisons with two separate households. He died in 1889.
