Alexis Ravelo
De procedencia humilde y formación autodidacta, (Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, España, 1971) se ha destacado por sus novelas de corte policial, sus colecciones de relatos y sus libros infantiles, pero es autor, además, de seis espectáculos dramático-musicales, los guiones de un programa de televisión, artículos y docenas de letras de canciones para diversos intérpretes. Defiende una concepción artesanal del hecho literario, en la cual se combinan amenidad, reflexión e incomodidad.
