Gordon Korman

    23. október 1963

    Gordon Korman je plodný autor, ktorého literárna cesta sa začala v pozoruhodne mladom veku. Jeho rané skúsenosti, vrátane výučby na siedmom ročníku, priamo inšpirovali jeho tvorbu a preukázali vrodenú schopnosť premeniť životné postrehy na pútavé príbehy. Kormanovo dielo často odráža bystré pochopenie mladistvých skúseností a perspektív, vďaka čomu sú jeho príbehy pre široké publikum príťažlivé a zrozumiteľné. Jeho rozsiahla bibliografia svedčí o neustálom zanietení pre rozprávanie príbehov a jedinečnom hlase v literatúre pre deti a mládež.
