- Her book, Room, was based on a man, Josef Fritzl, who kept his daughter and some of her children locked in the basement. This is how the book is, a mom and son are help captive in a room by a man how is called "Old Nick." http://www.guardian.co.uk/lifeandstyle/2010/aug/13/emma-donoghue-room-josef-fritzl
- Donoghue is said to be good at writing many types of genres such as, fiction, drama, and criticism. http://www.bookrags.com/biography/emma-donoghue-dlb/
- She has publishes seven novels, three books of shork stories, two literary histories, two anthologies, and two plays. Her seven novels have all been published within a span of sixteen years, which I think is not that long. http://mobile.bookbrowse.com/authors/index.cfm/author_number/1599/resources/biography/emma-donoghue
"Donoghue goes the distance with “Room,” and she brings her story to a powerful close that feels exactly right. This is a truly memorable novel, one that can be read through myriad lenses — psychological, sociological, political. It presents an utterly unique way to talk about love, all the while giving us a fresh, expansive eye on the world in which we live."
