Cari Noga

    Táto autorka sa vo svojej tvorbe zameriava na príbehy o odolnosti a súčasných, nekonvenčných rodinách. Jej diela často skúmajú, ako sa postavy vyrovnávajú s materstvom a rodinnými výzvami. S obľubou zasadzuje svoje romány do prostredia farmy v Michigane a čerpá zo svojich vlastných skúseností ako rodičia syna s autizmom, aby vytvorila hlboko ľudské a pôsobivé postavy. Jej literárna cesta je dôkazom vytrvalosti a odhodlania, čo sa odráža v jej jedinečných a dojímavých rozprávaniach.
