Petronela Rotar
Petronela Rotar nu are biografie literară. Maximum una pseudoliterară, cu indulgenţă. S-a născut la ţară, ca veşnicia lui Blaga, undeva lîngă Braşov, şi a făcut naveta la oraş. La şcoală, aia cîtă a făcut. La liceu, i-au apărut cîteva poezii în revista literară a şcolii, iar ăsta ar fi putut fi un început bun pentru o biografie literară, dar nu a fost. Apoi nu a mai apărut decît la televizor şi în ziare. Şi acolo, de partea greşită a microfonului. A fost reporter, editor sau prezentator la staţiile locale ale Pro TV, Antena 1, Realitatea. S-a apucat de două facultăţi, Litere şi Sociologie, şi nu a terminat-o pe niciuna. Are de gînd să nu o termine nici pe a treia. S-a apucat şi de doi copii, iar pe ăştia încă îi desăvîrşeşte. Sau aşa îşi im

Je suis née le en 1977 près de Bordeaux, où je vis toujours.
J’ai commencé à dévorer les livres dès que j’ai su lire. La Bibliothèque rose, la Bibliothèque verte, puis de nombreux romans qui me faisaient vivre mille et une vies.
J’avais huit ans quand j’ai écrit mon premier roman sur un cahier de brouillon vert au dos duquel figuraient des tables de multiplication. Il parlait d’amour, de mer et d’un soleil qui mettait trente pages à se coucher.
En sixième, je répondais « Écrire des livres » à la question « Que voulez-vous faire plus tard ? » sur les fiches que l’on remplissait en début d’année. Pas à chaque fois, parce qu’il m’est aussi arrivé de vouloir être styliste. Ça n’a pas duré longtemps : tout le monde v -

Ana Barton
Fiindcă am fost gimnastă până mi-au calculat vârsta osoasă şi-au stabilit că despre performanţă n-o să poată fi vorba din motive de lungime excesivă, aş putea spune că am o mobilitate impresionantă. Am 40 de ani. Sunt însă atât de imatură încât aproape că mi-e ruşine să-i declar. De arătat, da, îi arăt pe toţi, deşi, uneori, parcă mai văd şi zecimale pe-acolo. De şcoală ce să zic? Am o educaţie eclectică, model toptan: Teologie, Litere, Cultură şi Civilizaţie Ebraică, Psiholingvistică. Babel ori foame. Sigur, arareori mă înţeleg pe mine şi cu mine, dar m-am lăsat şi de dramatizări. Cine sunt? Mama unei copile de 12 ani şi jumătate pe care o cheamă Rada. Cum sunt? Vie, deocamdată. Binecuvântată stare. Ce fac? Am trei caiete, unul acasă, unul

I've been a nomad from the age of six-months, when my parents packed me and our Siamese cat into an old Renault and set off for a remote gold-mining town in Australia's Nullarbor desert. As an adult, I spent three decades living and working in some of the world's most intriguing, and dangerous, places. From Baghdad, to Bangkok, to New York. From Brazil to Canada to Sri Lanka. Recently I returned to Australia, to the wonderful city of Melbourne. When I'm not writing novels, I work in international developm -

Raluca Feher
„Raluca Feher e o rockerita a scrisului, din cel putin doua motive. Unu: lucreaza in publicitate, unde cuvintele scapara si pocnesc din calcaie. Doi: in literatura conventionala (si prost) denumita «de calatorie», blues-ul nu invita la infierbintirea sangelui, ci la picoteala. Pe rastelul din care ea iti ia armamentul scrie, cu litere electrice, «Rock’n roll over, Beethoven». Daca i-ati citit pataniile din Argentina, Uruguay si Chile, stiti la ce sa va asteptati: ritm de TGV, fraze trepidante si un cocktail afectiv cu o reteta usor de transcris si greu de nimerit: ironie, insolenta, bravada, nitica exasperare si credinta ca poti lua la bord orice pasager fara riscul de a-l pierde de client“ - Radu Paraschivescu

George Topîrceanu
Born in Bucharest, Topîrceanu began his schooling in the city, and then moved to the hilly countryside of the Argeş county, in the Șuici commune, where he formed his taste for themes taken from nature. After completing secondary studies, he attended the University of Bucharest Law School, and then its Faculty of Letters, without ever finishing either.
