  Olaug Nilssen

  Fekk sitt store gjennombrot med Få meg på, for faen i 2005. Boka braut tabu knytte til ungdom og seksualitet og blei definerande for ein heil generasjon. Sidan den gong har ho skrive bøker i mange sjangrar og markert seg som ei uvanleg og viktig stemme i norsk litteratur. I boka og teaterstykket Stort og stygt tematiserer ho det å vere forelder for eit barn som ikkje er som dei andre, for første gong. Med Tung tids tale bryt ho igjen tabu, denne gongen med ei uvanleg openheit om det å vere mor til eit sterkt funksjonshemma barn.
