Who is Sarah Lark?
Sarah Lark, or rather, Christiane Gohl, her real name is a German writer known worldwide by this pseudonym, although she has written with many others such as Ricarda Jordan, Christiane Gohl, Elisabeth Rotenberg, Leonie Bell or Stephanie Tano.
He was born in 1958 in Germany (in Bochum) but currently resides in Mojácar, in Almería. Despite being an animal lover, she could not study what she wanted, which was a veterinarian, so she studied Teaching, with a doctorate in Psychology, and worked for a time as a journalist and copywriter. This was also combined as a tourist guide, hence, in her research, she was fascinated by New Zealand, and hence she wrote the novels that have given her so much success.
Gohl changed her name at the request of her German publishers because, with her original, she had published more than 150 books on horsemanship, and was nicknamed "the horse woman." Despite the fact that some published them under other pseudonyms, the proper name was the most recognized.
So she started using the pseudonyms Sarah Lark and Ricarda Jordan. Actually, the one that has given him the most success has been the first, a name with which he took a series of novels about Maori culture in New Zealand.
Currently, they reside in Spain and run a horse farm, surrounded by dogs, cats and, of course, also horses. His decision to settle in the country was due to a tourist visit he made.
