Work

Wolff's first novel, The Trials of Tiffany Trott, was born in 1997 when the London Daily Telegraph asked her to write a comic column. Trott's persona is as British working-girl. HarperCollins commissioned Wolff to turn the column into a book.

Kirkus Reviews wrote that in The Very Picture of You (2011), Wolff handled multiple plotlines, balancing the stories of "betrayal, deception and remorse" told in the novel in a skillful manner.

Isabel Wolff Isabel Wolff author of Shadows Over Paradise shares what motivated

Wolff's novel, Ghostwritten (2014), deals with the largely unknown issue of civilians from South East Asia, many of them women and children, who were sent to live in concentration camps run by the Japanese during World War II. The story is very much about "childhood traumas," such as losing a sibling.
