«La casa de una escritora en Gales» is the travel and memoir book by Jan Morris, published by National Geographic in hardback (128 pages, in Spanish).
Trefan Morys, the former family stable turned into Jan Morris's home in northwest Wales, is the starting point for a reflection on what it means to be Welsh. Situated between the sea and the mountain, the house serves the author to sketch a portrait of the country and of her own life, and to explain how Wales has preserved its identity.
Volume 407 of the Travel Narrative collection. Publication date: 30 September 2002.
For readers of travel literature and memoirs interested in cultural identity and the history of Wales.
Catharine Jan Morris was a Welsh historian, author and travel writer. She was known particularly for the Pax Britannica trilogy (1968–1978), a history of the British Empire, and for portraits of cities, including Oxford, Venice, Trieste, Hong Kong and New York City. She published under her birth name until 1972, when she had gender reassignment surgery, transitioning from male to female.
