Ambientada en Cambridge en 1912, 'The Gate of Angels' de Penelope Fitzgerald narra la historia de Fred Fairly, un joven profesor de física en St Angelicus College, donde las mujeres tienen prohibida la entrada. La vida de Fred da un vuelco cuando conoce a Daisy, una joven que le hace cuestionar sus creencias científicas y su visión del mundo. La novela explora temas como el amor, la ciencia, la fe y el choque entre la tradición y la modernidad, todo ello con el estilo elegante y la ironía característicos de Fitzgerald.
Penelope Mary Fitzgerald was a Booker Prize-winning novelist, poet, essayist and biographer from Lincoln, England. In 2008 The Times listed her among "the 50 greatest British writers since 1945". The Observer in 2012 placed her final novel, The Blue Flower, among "the ten best historical novels". A.S. Byatt called her, "Jane Austen’s nearest heir for precision and invention."
