David Storey – AUTOR
Nació en Wakefield, Yorkshire. De familia obrera, su padre trabajó en una mina de carbón, pero él llegó a estudiar en la Slade School of Fine Art de Londres, donde se mantuvo por sí mismo jugando en un equipo de rugby a trece. A pesar de que comenzó su carrera literaria como dramaturgo, la fama le llegó con su primera novela, El ingenuo salvaje (1960), que se alzó con el Macmillan Fiction Award. Seguirían Flight into Camden (1961, Premio John Llewellyn Rhys y Premio Somerset Maugham), y Saville , que ganó el Premio Booker en 1976. Cuando Lindsay Anderson adaptó su novela El ingenuo salvaje a la pantalla en 1963, él mismo firmó el guion. Storey falleció el 4 de octubre de 2017 en Londres a los 83 años de edad, a causa de la enfermedad de Parkinson.
