Cynthia Rylant

    6 juni 1954

    Cynthia Rylant is een gevierde auteur wiens werk meerdere genres binnen kinder- en jeugdliteratuur bestrijkt. Ze put vaak uit haar eigen achtergrond, met name haar jeugd in de bergen van West Virginia, en creëert hedendaagse en historische jeugdromans, fantasy voor de middenbouw en lyrische proza gedichten. Ze is wellicht het best bekend als romanschrijver, waarbij ze karakteristiek introspectieve, meelevende jongeren portretteert in landelijke of kleine stadse omgevingen die zich vaak afgescheiden voelen van hun leeftijdsgenoten. Haar werk wordt geprezen om zijn diepgang en empathie.
