Picture
Simone Mondesir was born in London but enjoyed a peripatetic childhood living on RAF bases in the Far and Middle East as well as in England.  She read Middle Eastern History at SOAS, London University, followed by a brief interlude as a very junior academic at Durham University, before becoming a print journalist specialising in Arab politics.  From there she moved into TV, first as a researcher then as a producer.  She worked for London Weekend Television, the BBC, and Channel 4, finally running her own, small TV production company, before deciding it was time to get out and do what she had always wanted to do – write fiction. 

Much to the surprise of her friends and family, as well as her own, she married somewhat late in life, and then spent nearly 10 years living and travelling with her husband in the Balkans and other parts of Southern and Eastern Europe.  They now live in France.

Apart from some obscure academic works and numerous political articles, she is the author of four novels:  Acquired Tastes; Coming Up For Air; Mothers, Sisters & other Lovers; and A Sensible Girl, all of which are available from Amazon.
