加•澤文 (Gabrielle Zevin ，1977— )

美國知名作傢、編劇。年輕並極富魅力，深愛閱讀與創作。

畢業於哈佛大學英美文學係的她，已齣版瞭九本小說，作品被翻譯成三十多種語言。14歲時，她寫瞭一封關於“槍與玫瑰樂團”的信函投給當地報社，措詞激烈，意外獲得該報的樂評人一職，邁齣瞭成為作傢的第一步。28歲時，齣版《時光倒流的女孩》，一舉成名。

一直以來，她對書、書店以及愛書人的未來，都充滿見解。她的第八本小說《島上書店》在2014年以無人能及的高票數，獲選美國獨立書商選書桂冠圖書；在中國已成為超級暢銷書，是無數書店常推常新的作品。《太年輕》是她的第九本小說，《華盛頓時報》評論道：“本質上，這是一部關於女性主義的、充滿智慧的傑作！”

澤文的創作豐富，而一以貫之的，是用輕盈的文字，充滿想象力的故事和洞見，書寫深刻的人生話題。

澤文還為《紐約時報》、美國國傢公共電颱（NPR）撰稿，現居洛杉磯。

A. J. Fikry’s life is not at all what he expected it to be. He lives alone, his bookstore is experiencing the worst sales in its history, and now his prized possession, a rare collection of Poe poems, has been stolen. But when a mysterious package appears at the bookstore, its unexpected arrival gives Fikry the chance to make his life over--and see everything anew.
