Years of Fate

Katja Maybach wrote her first novel and several short stories at the age of twelve. But she has always had a second passion for fashion. And so she won the designer prize of a big German women’s magazine for the design of an evening dress at the age of fifteen. She went to Paris at seventeen and first became a model in a Couture house, later a successful designer. Following a serious illness, she began writing successful novels. Her debut novel “Eine Nacht im November” was a great success and became a bestseller in France. The author now lives in Munich and has two grown-up children.
