Jane Kurtz Libri
Jane Kurtz attinge dalla sua unica educazione in un villaggio etiope, dove un'infanzia ricca di avventure all'aria aperta e di narrazione ha plasmato la sua prospettiva. Ci sono voluti quasi due decenni dopo il suo ritorno negli Stati Uniti per trovare la sua voce nelle parole, traducendo queste profonde esperienze in narrativa. Il suo prolifico corpo di opere, che abbraccia vari generi, esplora spesso temi di memoria, osservazione e ricerca. Kurtz trasforma magistralmente i ricordi personali e le esperienze di vita in storie avvincenti che risuonano con lettori di tutte le età. La sua scrittura è una testimonianza della sua capacità di trasformare temi complessi in narrazioni accessibili e d'impatto.
