Maggie Shayne

    Die Autorin beschäftigt sich in ihrem Werk mit dem tiefgreifenden Thema des Wiederfindens von Hoffnung und Stärke nach der Bewältigung immenser persönlicher Verluste. Ihre ausgeprägte literarische Stimme kommt in ihrer Fähigkeit zum Ausdruck, selbst in den dunkelsten Zeiten Humor zu finden und tiefen Kummer in Widerstandsfähigkeit zu verwandeln. Mit ihrer Prosa erforscht sie den Prozess des Wiederaufbaus und den unzerbrechlichen Geist, wobei sie oft Naturbilder und die Vorstellung von Heimat als Zufluchtsort einbezieht. Ihr Schreiben ist ein Beweis für Ausdauer und ermutigt die Leser, auch im Schatten Licht zu suchen.
