Adam Mickiewicz
To a Pole, the name Adam Mickiewicz is emblematic of Polishness and greatness. What Homer is to the Greeks, or Shakespeare to the English, Mickiewicz is to the Poles. He is a cultural icon, a name inextricably connected with Polish literature and history, and one mentioned with pride. Mickiewicz stands out in the consciousness of Poles both as a man of letters and a political leader.

Despite his unquestionable status and fame, however, much of Mickiewicz's biography is shrouded in mystery. Even the generally accepted date of his birth, December 24. 1798, is uncertain, since it hasn't been determined whether it refers to the Gregorian or the Julian calendar. Nor has it been established conclusively whether Mickiewicz was born in Nowogrodek or -

Melvin Burgess
Melvin Burgess is a British author of children's fiction. His first book, The Cry of the Wolf, was published in 1990. He gained a certain amount of notoriety in 1996 with the publication of Junk, which was published in the shadow of the film of Irvine Welsh's Trainspotting, and dealt with the trendy and controversial idea of heroin-addicted teenagers. Junk soon became, at least in Britain, one of the best-known children's books of the decade.

Vytautė Žilinskaitė suaugusiųjų literatūroje garsi kaip daugybės kandžių humoreskų rašytoja, satyrikė. Vaikų literatūroje žinomi jos apsakymai, literatūrinės pasakos, eilėraščiai ir kelios pjesės. Rašytoja dažniausiai pasakoja ne istorijas, o svarsto kokią nors problemą, ji „filosofuoja“ pasirinkta tema, naudodamasi stulbinančiomis hiperbolėmis, fantastiškais įsivaizdavimais, kurdama absurdiškas situacijas. „Vytautė Žilinskaitė gana sėkmingai pakeitė lietuviškojo sąmojo pobūdį, intelektualizuodama jo ištakas ir išraišką dabartinės prozos ir poezijos dvasia“, – rašė Vytautas Kubilius 1995 metais.
