Cynthia Rylant

    6 giugno 1954

    Cynthia Rylant è un'acclamata autrice i cui contributi spaziano in più generi della letteratura per bambini e ragazzi. Attingendo spesso al proprio vissuto, in particolare all'infanzia nelle montagne del West Virginia, crea romanzi contemporanei e storici per giovani adulti, fantasy per ragazzi e poesie in prosa lirica. È forse più conosciuta come romanziera, ritraendo caratteristicamente giovani introspettivi e compassionevoli in contesti rurali o di piccole città che spesso si sentono separati dai loro coetanei. Il suo lavoro è elogiato per la sua profondità ed empatia.
