Gerald Seymour

    25 novembre 1941

    Gerald Seymour est un célèbre romancier britannique dont l'œuvre puise profondément dans sa vaste expérience de correspondant à l'étranger. Ses récits se caractérisent par une intrigue complexe et un œil avisé sur les tensions géopolitiques et les opérations clandestines qui façonnent le monde moderne. Seymour mêle magistralement suspense et réalisme ancré, explorant souvent les motivations complexes des individus pris dans le feu croisé des conflits mondiaux. Sa transition du journalisme à l'écriture de fiction à temps plein a conféré à ses histoires une urgence authentique et un regard sans concession sur les conséquences du pouvoir.
