Biografía del autor

Won-pyung Sohn nació en 1979 en Corea del Sur y ha desarrollado una trayectoria profesional como escritora de novelas y como directora de cine. Sus premisas suelen ser sorprendentes, a medio camino entre la fantasía y la realidad, pero con su primer libro, Almendra, se ciñó a una enfermedad real y logró su mayor éxito literario hasta la fecha. El impulso, una historia sobre las segundas oportunidades, es su novela más reciente.
