About the author

Barbara Noack was a German novelist and author of screenplays for television series.

In 1944 she had to give up her studies after just one semester because she was conscripted to work in an ammunition factory. After the end of the Second World War, she studied for two semesters at a Berlin art school. She then worked as an illustrator and journalist for various Berlin newspapers.

She also began to write and with success. Her second novel Die Zürcher Verlobung was a big hit with the public in 1955 and was filmed in 1957 by Helmut Käutner. Noack's subsequent books were also regular bestsellers well into the 1980s. In addition to conventional love stories for a female readership, her later works also described her experiences as a single mother with her adolescent son and her own life story in the autobiographical novels A Handful of Happiness and A Piece of Life.
