Goran Tribuson

Diplomirao je i magistrirao (filmolgija) na Filozofskom fakultetu u Zagrebu. Kratke priče počinje objavljivati početkom 1970-ih godina 20. stoljeća u prvom valu tzv. fantastičara (Zavjera kartografa i Praška smrt), da bi se postupno opredijelio za žanrovsku prozu. Kritika je odmah uočila Tribusona kao najtipičnijeg predstavnika hrvatskih borgesovaca koji prvi među brojnima u toj struji postiže punu autorsku zrelost. Postupno napušta fantastiku, ali zadržava interes za srednjoeuropsku ikonografiju i težnju prema okultnome, što se očituje u njegovim romanima Snijeg u Heidelbergu, Čuješ li nas, Frido Štern (u cjelokupnom autorovom opusu jednom od najboljih njegovih djela), te Ruskom ruletu.
