Caitlin Davies

Caitlin Davies (born 1964 in England) is an English author. Her parents are Margaret Forster and Hunter Davies, both well-known writers.

She has been associated with Botswana since 1990 when she met her husband, Ron, while studying for a Masters in English at Clark University, USA. Relocating to Botswana and working as a teacher, she wrote the novel "Jamestown Blues" and "The Return of El Negro". The victim of a brutal assault and rape, she was active in research concerning domestic violence in Botswana.

She returned to England and published a memoir about her experiences, called "Place of Reeds"; her novel "Black Mulberries" was published in 2008. She writes regularly for "The Independent". Her new novel, "Friends Like Us" will be published next spring.
