"Peter S Beagle was born in Manhattan in 1939 and raised in the Bronx, a block away from the Woodlawn Cemetery, the inspiration for his novel "A Fine and Private Place". He wrote that novel when he was 19 years old, but had originally proclaimed he would be a writer at the age of 10; subsequent events proven him either prescient or even more stubborn than hitherto suspected.
Today, thanks to classic works such as "The Last Unicorn", "Tamsin", "The Innkeeper's Song" and "Two Hearts", Peter is acknowledged as the America's greatest living fantasy author; his dazzling abilities with language, characters and magical storytelling have earned him millions of fans around the world." - a blurb from the book
