Donald Hamilton

    24 marzo 1916 – 20 novembre 2006

    Donald Hamilton creò narrazioni avvincenti, principalmente nel genere dello spionaggio. Le sue opere più note esplorano la vita di Matt Helm, un agente che naviga nel pericoloso mondo dello spionaggio e dell'assassinio. Lo stile distintivo di Hamilton è caratterizzato da un tono svelto e fattuale, spesso intriso di umorismo secco, che descrive l'azione intensa con distacco professionale. Questo approccio narrativo conferisce profondità ai suoi personaggi, sottolineando il loro ruolo di professionisti nell'esecuzione di incarichi pericolosi.
