Dinitia Smith

Dinitia Smith is the author of four novels, and was for eleven years a reporter at the New York Times covering the arts.

Her most recent novel, "The Honeymoon," is about the 19th. century author, George Eliot, and her late-life marriage to a handsome young man twenty years her junior which nearly ended in tragedy. Smith, who had peripatetic childhood in England and America, has always been fascinated with discovering different worlds in her novels. Her first novel, "The Hard Rain," was about radical activists in the 1970's. Her second, "Remember This," was a semi-autobiographical account of her growing up. Smith's third novel, "The Illusionist," is an exploration of transgenderism. It tells the story of what happens when a handsome young man arrives in a small town, young girls fall in love with him, and then it is discovered that "he" is really a "she."
