Mariette Navarro
Mariette Navarro est une autrice française née en 1980 à Lyon. Diplômée de l’École normale supérieure de Lyon et titulaire d’un master de création littéraire, elle a su se faire une place dans le paysage littéraire contemporain grâce à son écriture sensible et poétique. Ses textes explorent souvent des thèmes liés à la solitude, à l’introspection et aux liens humains, le tout avec une prose minimaliste et évocatrice. Elle est également dramaturge, collaborant avec plusieurs compagnies théâtrales pour créer des œuvres où la poésie rencontre la scène. Parmi ses livres, Ultramarins (2021) a été particulièrement salué par la critique pour son atmosphère onirique et son exploration des limites entre l'humain et l'infini.
