graduate fromRadcliffe College,Cambridge, Massachusetts.Jessie and Conrad's marriage
was dissolved in 1929, and Jessie married the English writerMartin Armstrongin 1930.
Conrad Aiken went on to marry twice more. Together with her brother John and her sister
Jane, Joan Aiken wrote Conrad Aiken Remembered(1989), a short appreciation of their
father.
Aiken was taught at home by her mother until the age of twelve and from 1936 to 1940 at
Wychwood Schoolfor girls in Oxford. She did not attend university. Writing stories from an
early age, she finished her first full-length novel when she was sixteen and had her first short
story for adults accepted for publication when she was seventeen. [citation needed]In 1941 her first
children's story was broadcast on theBBC'sChildren's Hour.[4]
Aiken worked for theUnited Nations Information Centre(UNIC) in London between 1943
and 1949. In 1945 she married Ronald George Brown, a journalist who was also working at
UNIC. They had two children before he died in 1955.
After her husband's death, Aiken joined the magazineArgosy, where she worked in variouseditorial capacities and, she later said, learned her trade as a writer. The magazine was one of
many in which she published short stories between 1955 and 1960. During this time she also
published her first two collections of children's stories and began work on a children's novel,
initially titledBonnie Green, which was later published in 1962 asThe Wolves of Willoughby
Chase.By then she was able to write full-time from home, producing two or three books a
year for the rest of her life, mainly children's books and thrillers, as well as many articles,
introductions and talks on children's literature and on the work ofJane Austen.
Aiken married the New York landscape painter and teacher Julius Goldstein in 1976. They
divided their time between her home, The Hermitage inPetworth,West Sussex, and New
York. He died in 2001.
Aiken died at home at the age of 79. She was survived by her two children.
Writings[edit]
Joan Aiken produced more than a hundred books, including more than a dozen collections of
fantasy stories, plays and poems, and modern and historical novels for adults and children.
She was a lifelong fan ofghost stories,particularly those ofM. R. James,Fitz James O'Brien
andNugent Barker.
Some of her books focus on spine-chilling or supernatural events, including The Windscreen
Weepers(stories, 1969), The Shadow Guests(novel, 1980),A Whisper in the Night(stories,
1982), andA Creepy Company(stories, 1993, with variant contents in its US and UK
editions). She set her adult supernatural novel, The Haunting of Lamb House, atLamb House
in Rye (now aNational Trustproperty). This ghost story recounts in fictional form an alleged
haunting experienced by two former residents of the house,Henry JamesandE. F. Benson,
both of whom also wrote ghost stories.
Many of Aiken's most popular books, including the Wolves Chronicles[5](also known asThe
Wolves of Willoughby Chaseseries or the James III series), are set in an elaborate alternative
history of Britain in whichJames IIwas never deposed in theGlorious Revolution,but

supporters of theHouse of Hanovercontinually agitate against the monarchy. These books
also toy with the geography of London, adding a Canal District among other features. Wolves
have invaded the country from Europe via the newly built Channel Tunnel. The novels share
a varying cast and a variety of interlinked child protagonistsinitially Bonnie Willoughby,
but subsequently her itinerant friend Simon, Simon's intrepid Cockney friend Dido Twite (the
heroine of most of the books), Dido's half-sister Is and Owen Hughes (son of Dido's RoyalNavy ally Captain Hughes).
In a review ofMidwinter Nightingalefor theSchool Library Journal,Susan Patron praised
the characterisations and the suspenseful plot and noted that "although the titles in the
'Wolves' series may be read independently", readers may want to read the earlier books first.[6]
Aiken's series of children's books about Arabel and Mortimer were illustrated byQuentin
Blake.Others were illustrated byJan Piekowskiand Pat Marriott. Piekowski wonthe
foremost British award for children's book illustration, theGreenaway Medal,for The
Kingdom Under the Sea and Other Stories(Jonathan Cape, 1971), a collection of "unique
fairy tales from Eastern Europe and Russia" retold by Aiken.[7]
Aiken participated in thePuffinBook Club's annual Children's Literature Summer Camp, run
by Colony Holidays, predecessor toATE Superweeks,along with other popular children's
authors such asIan SerraillierandClive King.[8]
Aiken's many novels for adults include several that continue or complement novels byJane
Austen.These includeMansfield RevisitedandJane Fairfax.

Midnight Is a Place(1976)
Midnight Is a Placeappears to take place in the same fictional universe as the Wolves
Chronicles. The action takes place in the industrial town of Blastburn, which featured as the
location of Mrs. Brisket's orphanage inThe Wolves of Willoughby Chase,but does not
otherwise share any of the characters or explicitly reference the alternate history of the otherbooks. In addition, the setting and time period resemble and satirise the height of the
Victorian manufacturing years, rather than the Georgian setting of the other books. "Joan
Aiken follows all the conventions of Dickensian fiction with just a little extra to satisfy jaded
contemporary tastes. The Grimsby mansion at Midnight Court houses not one, but two
unjustly disinherited orphans ...".[10]
