Sharing the possibilities that storytelling embraces
"Storytelling makes possibleredemptions and healings that can't happen in any other way." – Stephen Donaldson
Donaldson, born in Cleveland, Ohio in 1947 may be American but he is mostly “other-worldly” in his writing. Over his lifetime he's written a widerange of fantasy and science fiction novels that have cemented his position asa leading writer in the genre’, knocking around in alternativeuniverses like he successfully does in his 10-volume The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant.
Characterized bypsychological complexity, conceptual abstractness, moral bleakness, and the useof an arcane vocabulary, his writing has attracted critical praise for its"imagination, vivid characterizations, and fast pace." I think he also should get high marks for his titles (one I especially enjoyed is The Rune of Earth).
Agraduate of The College of Wooster and Kent State (both in Ohio), he currently makes his home in New Mexico. “I may not be as old as dirt," Donaldson said, "but dirt and Ihave an awful lot in common.”
