Ole Lund Kirkegaard

Ole Lund Kirkegaard, 1940-1979, dansk forfatter af børnebøger, som han selv har illustreret.
Hans personer, bl.a. i debutromanen Lille Virgil (1967), er ofte opfindsomme, legende børn, som sammen med skæve eksistenser og folkepensionister står i et modsætningsforhold til samfundets normer og autoriteter, dvs. fortravlede voksne, som har glemt at være børn.
En mere eventyrlig side findes i bøger som Hodja fra Pjort (1970) om drengen, der drager ud i den store verden for at finde sit flyvende tæppe, og Otto er et næsehorn (1972) om det tegnede næsehorn, som bliver levende og en god allieret i kampen mod de voksne.
Ole Lund Kirkegaard repræsenterer frem for nogen det, som er blevet kaldt 1960'ernes og 1970'ernes "kulturelle frisættelse af barnet"

Caspar Eric

Caspar Eric er født i 1987 og har læst Litteraturvidenskab på Københavns Universitet.

I 2014 debuterede Caspar Eric som forfatter med poesi-udgivelsen ”7/11”. Det var med Caspar Erics egne ord en bog om at være ung i 2014, om popsamfundet og angsten for at blive outdated. Men det var også en bog om København, om kærlighed, om det, der er og sker lige nu. Og jeget i bogen ligner i udpræget grad Caspar Eric selv. Caspar Eric modtog desuden debutantprisen Munch Kristensens Kulturlegat 2015 på 50.000 kr. for ”7/11”.

”7/11” er Caspar Erics forfatterdebut i Danmark, men han har tidligere udgivet en mindre dobbeltdigtsamling på det norske forlag AFV Press. På samme forlag er udkommet yderligere to digtsamlinger af Caspar Eric i august 2014.
