He looks out at a world gone mad-at himself and the people around him-and turns a question over and over in his mind: how is it that we know so little about one another, even those closest to us?And then, one day, Artie learns that life has been keeping a secret from him, one that threatens to upend his entire world.

Συγγραφέας

Η ΕΛΙΖΑΜΠΕΘ ΣΤΡΑΟΥΤ γεννήθηκε το 1956 στο Πόρτλαντ του Μέην. Από μικρή της άρεσε να γράφει: Κρατούσε ημερολόγια καταγράφοντας τις λεπτομέρειες τής καθημερινότητας. Τής ασκούσαν επίσης έλξη τα βιβλία και έχει περάσει άπειρες ώρες από τη ζωή της στην τοπική βιβλιοθήκη, στους διαδρόμους με τη λογοτεχνία. Όταν ήταν παιδί, τους καλοκαιρινούς μήνες, έπαιζε έξω στη φύση μόνη της, πιο συχνά, ή με τον αδελφό της, και έτσι αναπτύχθηκε η βαθιά και σταθερή αγάπη της για τον φυσικό κόσμο: τα καλυμμένα με φύκια βράχια στις ακτές του Μέην και το δάσος του Νιου Χάμσαιρ με τα κρυμμένα αγριολούλουδα. Σπούδασε στο Bates College και αποφοίτησε με πτυχίο στην αγγλική φιλολογία το 1977. Δύο χρόνια αργότερα, πήρε πτυχίο νομικής από το Syracuse University College of Law. Μετακόμισε στη Νέα Υόρκη, όπου έγινε βοηθός στο Τμήμα Αγγλικών Σπουδών του Κοινοτικού Κολεγίου του Μανχάτταν. Πλέον δημοσιεύονταν περισσότερα διηγήματά της σε λογοτεχνικά περιοδικά, καθώς και στα Redbook και Seventeen.
