Tác giả: Ian Douglas Robertson

Ian Douglas Robertson read French and Spanish Language and Literature at Trinity College, Dublin. After graduating, he came to live in Greece, where he works as a teacher, actor, translator and writer. He has translated a number of academic works from Greek into English, including The History of the Olympic Games, The History of the Greek National Theatre, etc. He has also translated three novels by Nestor Matsas, one of which has been published in the US under the title Good Morning, Mr. Freud. He has also written simplified readers and plays for young learners of English, as well as a successful advanced GCE O Level textbook. He has written poetry, short stories and novels, but has yet to have a novel published. His short story Alki”s Latest Joke was published in the Athens News as part of a story-writing competition. He has played a number of roles both on stage and in film, from Ernest Worthing to Sir Andrew Aquecheek. He is currently negotiating to play Torvald in A Doll”s House, which will be one of the first web films to be produced in Greece. His tastes in literature, as in life, are eclectic. Above all, he loves the magic of a good story well told. As a child brought up in Ireland, he listened enraptured to such stories told by some of a dying breed of great storytellers.
