Phillip Rock

    30. júl 1927 – 3. apríl 2004

    Phillip George Rock sa zameral na písanie románov, ktoré sa zaoberali životmi rodín a ich históriou naprieč desaťročiami. Jeho štýl sa vyznačoval podrobným vykreslením postáv a plynulým rozprávaním, ktoré čitateľa vtiahlo do doby, o ktorej písal. Dôraz kládol na ľudské osudy a rodinné väzby v kontexte historických udalostí.
