George Henry Borrow

    5. júl 1803 – 26. júl 1881

    George Borrow bol anglický autor, ktorého diela čerpali z jeho ciest po Európe a hlbokej náklonnosti k Rómom, ktorí sú v jeho textoch často zastúpení. Jeho cestopisy a romány zachytávajú jedinečnú zmes dobrodružstva, kultúrneho pozorovania a osobného zamyslenia. Borrowov štýl sa vyznačuje živými opismi a prenikavým vhľadom do života Európy, najmä do sveta Rómov, s ktorými si počas svojich ciest vytvoril silné puto. Jeho písanie ponúka čitateľom fascinujúci pohľad na svet mimo bežných ciest a na životy ľudí, ktorí sa v ňom pohybovali.
