Claire Castillon

Claire Castillon fait son entrée sur la scène littéraire française en septembre 2000, elle n'a alors que 25 ans. Le grenier, un premier roman (éditions Anne Carrière), surprenant et dérangeant, retient l'attention des critiques et séduit un large public. Claire Castillon récidive avec Je prends racine (éditions Anne Carrière), un second roman qui assoit son statut de romancière tout en l'affranchissant des étiquettes. La reine Claude publiée en mai 2002 (éditions Stock) l'installe définitivement parmi les auteurs français qui comptent. Pourquoi tu m'aimes pas? son quatrième roman (éditions Fayard, août 2003) est considéré comme son oeuvre la plus aboutie et beaucoup regrettent son absence des palmarès littéraires. Vous parler d'elle (éditi

Clémentine Beauvais

I was born in Paris in 1989 and though I started to read children’s books pretty early, I somehow never stopped. As a result, I’ve become a writer, reader and student of children’s literature. I’ve now been living and studying in Cambridge (UK) for seven years and have become a doctor. Well, not the type that saves people’s lives. The type that scribbles ‘PhD’ after their name and rambles on about beauty, truth and the value of (all) literature. Worth striving for, I think! More about my academic work here.

The other thing I do is write books – children’s books, surprisingly enough. In fact, it’s not ‘the other thing’. It’s the first thing I ever did, really – long before I heard that you could actually analyse books for a living, I wanted t

Maria Iordanidou
Γεννήθηκε στην Κωνσταντινούπολη το 1897 και έζησε τα παιδικά της χρόνια στον Πειραιά και το Βατούμ της Ρωσίας. Φοίτησε σε ρωσικό γυμνάσιο, στη Σταυρούπολη, όπου τη βρήκε η Οκτωβριανή Επανάσταση. Το 1919 γύρισε στην Κωνσταντινούπολη και λίγο αργότερα πήγε στην Αλεξάνδρεια, όπου παντρεύτηκε τον Ιορδάνη Ιορδανίδη. Το 1923 επέστρεψαν μαζί στην Αθήνα, αλλά σύντομα ο Ιορδανίδης έφυγε.

Εξαιτίας των συνθηκών της ζωής της, η Ιορδανίδου απέκτησε μεγάλη γλωσσομάθεια και εργάστηκε ως ιδιωτική υπάλληλος. Έγινε γνωστή στο λογοτεχνικό χώρο με το έργο Λωξάντρα, που έγραψε σε ηλικία 65 χρονών, το 1962, και γνώρισε πολλές επανεκδόσεις.
