Leonard Gardner

    3 de noviembre de 1933

    Leonard Gardner es un novelista, cuentista y guionista estadounidense cuya obra se caracteriza por su crudo realismo y su profundo pesimismo. Su novela Fat City es considerada un clásico estadounidense, que ofrece una mirada penetrante a las luchas de sus personajes marginados. Gardner se centra en individuos que lidian con realidades duras, rara vez alcanzando sus aspiraciones, empleando un estilo desprovisto de clichés para presentar una representación profundamente humana tanto de la desesperación como de la resiliencia.
