L'autore:

Linda Eketoft started to write fiction during Law School in Sweden, after living in Paris where she studied Philosophy at the Sorbonne; creating poetry in her spare time. She arrived in London to complete her Masters in Law, before starting working in city. It was not till after having lived in Sydney for a year and returning to London she decided to publish her first book, 'Centralen'. Her extensive travels in Europe, South America and Antarctica in combination with mountaineering in the Himalayas and Karakoram and her infallible passion for the arts - have laid the foundation for experiences she uses in her writing. Eketoft is fast creating a reputation for being hard-to-place in terms of literary style. Her debut is stylistically very unique from other contemporary writers', and has initially been branded surrealist, magic-realist, and gothic to mention a few. The shared view among readers in terms of theme however is that Eketoft seems to deal with the borderland between individual perception and universal reality that emerge from intriguing encounters and situations.
