Jean Ure

    1 januari 1943

    Deze productieve Engelse auteur schrijft voornamelijk voor kinderen en jongvolwassenen. Haar werk staat bekend om zijn vermogen om Britse tienerlezeressen aan te spreken, waarbij ze thema's en ervaringen onderzoekt die hun aandacht trekken. Door haar meeslepende verhalen duikt ze in de complexiteit van opgroeien en sociale dynamiek. Ure toont ook haar veelzijdigheid door vertalingen, waarmee ze andere literaire werken naar een breder publiek brengt.
