Explanation:

leanor Catton: the brilliant authorEleanor was born in the year 1985, in Canada, and at the age of six, went to New Zealand, her father’s home country. She spent many years studying in New Zealand. She has an exemplary background in education in Creative Writing studies: first from New Zealand itself, where she completed her Masters in Creative Writing at The International Institute of Modern Letters, Victoria University of Wellington; after which she obtained a fellowship from the very prestigious IOWA writers’ workshop. Her first published book was called The Rehearsal.The Luminaries was her second novel. This novel was shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize in the year 2013. Eleanor became the youngest author ever, at the age of 28, to win the Man Booker Prize in 2013. The book with its creative meanderings in the Goldfields of Southern New Zealand also made her at the age of 27, the youngest author to have ever been shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize. She has won many other awards. The research that went behind putting the novel together is also an incredible story to ponder over. Here is more about the award winning book. The Luminaries: A Detailed Analysis and ReviewThe Luminaries is a fascinating tale of intrigue, adventure, suspense, and mystery. The story is set in 1866, in Southern New Zealand, in a town called Hokitika, where the excavation of gold brings fortunes to men as diggers and owners, who either work in groups, or by themselves. Not only of goldfields, ships, and people; the Luminaries is also a story of strange love—between a woman of the street, a woman misled, and the story of a young aspiring man—whose destinies are intertwined. This is the story of strange fortuitous alliances, deceit, lies, uncovering and honoring. This is the story of revenge, betrayals, winnings, claims, and deeds—and more. Eleanor Catton forges into the narrative her keen perception and descriptions of human foibles and strengths.The Future aligning with destiniesCharacters are tied to events, and the unwrapping of events is beautifully brought forth in the novel—the past flashes in the present—the present gives rise to the future—a future, which, as the overall astrological entity in the narrative stresses upon—is one tethered to destiny. Set in 1866, the language too, astounds in its correctness and aptness. Characterization in this novel is remarkable: dialogues convey a lot about the characters; if there is a whimsical or fantasizing personality, their dialogues too, convey this; if it is a cryptic person, then their conversations are short and terse. The author portrays rightly, not just the physical features of the character with vividness, but with alacrity, also conjures their emotional patterns and behavioral tendencies onto a physical plane. Delineating the personality of each character, and also focusing upon what encourages particular behaviour on their part, is an intriguing facet of the book. Every person in the story has a past, and reasoning attached to their thoughts and actions—and it has been sufficiently expressed.
