William F. (William Francis) Nolan

    6. březen 1928 – 15. červenec 2021

    William F. Nolan proslul jako spoluautor vědeckofantastického románu Loganův útěk, který byl zfilmován a stal se předlohou pro televizní seriál. Jeho povídky byly vybrány do nesčetných antologií a učebnic, což dokládá jeho rozsáhlý vliv na žánr. Nolanova tvorba často zkoumá temnější stránky lidské povahy a naši společnost, zasazuje ji do futuristických, ale zároveň znepokojivě uvěřitelných prostředí. Jeho styl je charakteristický pronikavou psychologií postav a napínavým dějem, který čtenáře vtáhne do hlubin lidské psychiky a etických dilemat.
