Pierre Loti

    14. január 1850 – 10. jún 1923

    Pierre Loti, vlastným menom Louis Marie-Julien Viaud, bol francúzsky spisovateľ, ktorého diela sú často pretkané nostalgiou a exotikou. Jeho písanie, čerpajúce z vlastných námorníckych zážitkov, sa vyznačuje lyričnosťou a sugestívnymi opismi vzdialených krajín i ľudských emócií. Loti majstrovsky spájal autobiografické prvky s fikciou a vytváral príbehy plné melanchólie, lásky a túžby po neznámom. Jeho štýl, pripomínajúci impresionistické maliarstvo, zachytáva pominuteľné okamihy krásy aj ľudského utrpenia, čo z neho robí jedinečného rozprávača svojej doby.
