Autorenporträt

Joan Hawkins was born in Cambridge, Massachusetts. She attended Bennington College and New York University. She lived most of her life in Manhattan, where she practised psychotherapy. Her debut novel, Underwater, was published by GP Putnam in 1974. The book was critically acclaimed, challenging traditional gender roles and exploring controversial issues of the day. The second edition of Underwater was published on its fortieth anniversary by Landon Books in 2014. The author's second novel, Bailey (2012), explores themes of addiction and childhood trauma. Trespass (2013), is a fascinating portrait of a moribund, spirited woman living joyously to the end. Her fourth work, Rematch (2021), set in the early eighties, is a prescient take on corporate sexual discrimination. Joan's fifth title, the political drama Family Money, was published in 2022 by 451 Editions along with this electronic edition of Underwater. For more, see: www.JoanHawkins.net
