Jess Rothenberg

    Jess Rothenbergová sa vo svojej tvorbe zameriava na písanie pre mladých dospelých, pričom sa ponára do komplexných emocionálnych svetov dospievania. Jej štýl je charakteristický úprimnosťou a hlbokým porozumením pre skúsenosti tínedžerov, čo umožňuje čitateľom intenzívne sa spojiť s postavami a ich vývojom. Prostredníctvom pútavých príbehov zachytáva nielen vonkajšie udalosti, ale aj vnútorný život mladých ľudí, čím vytvára diela, ktoré zostávajú v pamäti. Jej debutový román pre tínedžerov potvrdzuje jej schopnosť vytvárať nezabudnuteľné literárne zážitky.

      Welcome to the Kingdom, a dazzling fantasy theme park where 'happily ever after' is not just a promise, but a rule . . . The Kingdom is a place where technology helps dreams come to life. Formerly extinct species roam the park, and twelve beautiful 'Fantasists' - half-human, half-android princesses - entertain visitors and make wishes come true. But this fairytale ends in murder, and now Ana, one of the twelve Fantasists, is in the dock after finding herself experiencing emotions and romantic feelings against all her programming . . .Told through court testimony, interrogation records and fragmented flashbacks, The Kingdom by Jess Rothenberg has the futuristic appeal of Westworld and the twists and turns of a true-crime thriller.
