Born in Dublin and raised partly in County Cork, she drew deeply on the landscapes, houses, and tensions of Ireland in her early fiction, while later works often explored the moral and emotional upheavals of wartime London. Over a career spanning more than four decades, Bowen produced acclaimed novels such as The Heat of the Day and The Death of the Heart, as well as finely crafted short stories. A chronicler of shifting worlds—whether the fading Anglo-Irish gentry or the fragile civility of a city under siege—Bowen combined elegance and wit with a sharp sense of the undercurrents shaping human lives.view less
