About Bruna De Luca

Bruna De Luca grew up in a very Italian household in the Scottish Borders and reluctantly describes herself as a deep-fried pizza. This dual heritage is woven into every aspect of her life – from her studies at the University of Edinburgh, where she completed a dissertation on Italian fairy tales, to the years she spent in Italy teaching students to speak English with a Scottish twang. Bruna’s experiences as the child of immigrants deeply shape her writing.
