Autoren-Porträt von Alan Sillitoe
Alan Sillitoe was born in 1928 and left school at 14 to work in various factories. He began writing after four years in the RAF, and lived for six years in France and Spain. His first stories were printed in the 'Nottingham Weekly Guardian'. In 1958 'Saturday Night and Sunday Morning' was published and 'The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner', which won the Hawthornden prize for Literature, came out the following year. Both these books were made into films.

Rezension zu „The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner “
'I have read nothing to compare with it.' Penelope Mortimer 'Sillitoe writes with tremendous energy, and his stories simply tear along.' Daily Telegraph 'All the imaginative sympathy in the world can't fake this kind of thing. It must have been lived in, seen, touched, smelled: and we are lucky to have a writer who has come out of it knowing the truth, and having the skill to turn that truth into art.' New Statesman 'Graphic, tough, outspoken, informal.' The Times 'A beautiful piece of work, confirming Sillitoe as a writer of unusual spirit and great promise.' Guardian 'A major writer.' Malcolm Bradbury
