Samuel Park

    Samuel Park was een romanschrijver wiens werken de ingewikkelde diepten van de menselijke psychologie en relaties verkenden. Zijn schrijfstijl werd gekenmerkt door precieze taal en een scherpzinnig inzicht in de motivaties van zijn personages. Park verdiepte zich vaak in thema's als verlies, geheugen en de zoektocht naar identiteit. Zijn non-fictie bijdragen aan The New York Times getuigen van zijn vaardigheid in het onderzoeken van complexe onderwerpen in non-fictie vorm.
