Susan Howatch - Later Life

Later Life

Howatch has used some of the profits from her novels to found an academic post with the title 'Starbridge Lecturer in Natural Science and Theology' in the Faculty of Divinity at Cambridge University, devoted to linking the fields of science and religion. The first holder of this post is the Reverend Dr. Fraser Watts, a psychologist and theologian.

Howatch is an Honorary Fellow of King's College, London, the University of Wales at Lampeter, and Sarum College in Salisbury. In 2012, Howatch was awarded an honorary Doctor of Letters degree from Hope College. She currently resides in Leatherhead.

Famous quotes containing the word life:

    “In comedy, reconcilement with life comes at the point when to the tragic sense only an inalienable difference or dissension with life appears.”
    —Constance Rourke (1885–1941)

    “All my life I’ve been running, from welfare officers, thugs, my father. See, there they are [the killers]. There on the bridge. I’m a dead man. Nosseros told me that. He told me. He said, “You got it all, but you’re a dead man, Harry Fabian.””
    —Jo Eisinger, and Jules Dassin. Harry Fabian (Richard Widmark)
