Catherynne M Valente

    5. máj 1979

    Catherynne M. Valente sa preslávila svojím osobitým štýlom a hypnotickým rozprávaním, ktoré často pretkáva mýtmi, rozprávkami a folklórom s modernými témami. Jej diela sú známe svojou bohatou obraznosťou, poetickým jazykom a hlbokým skúmaním identity, lásky a straty. Autorka majstrovsky vytvára svety, ktoré sú súčasne cudzie aj povedomé, a pozýva čitateľov na nezabudnuteľné cesty plné fantázie a emócií. Jej jedinečný hlas v súčasnej literatúre rezonuje svojou naliehavosťou a krásou.
