Lola Walder was born and raised in Seville, but Madrid is where she belongs. She studied Cinematographic Script from ECAM, and a Master in Creative Writing (Escuela de Letras de Madrid), and felt driven by a curious and restless spirit which gradually forged her two true passions: Literature and Cinema. In the last ten years she has collaborated in several media: radio, television, and press. She currently works as a film contributor for Vanity Fair magazine and is immersed in the creation of her second novel. Martina Peluso is an Italian award-winning illustrator born in Naples in 1980, where she currently lives and works. She has studied printing art at the Institute of Art in Naples and she has frequented courses of illustration at Sarmede and Pavia. Her picture book T-shirts aren't Napkins (Cuento de Luz, 2019) received Honorable mention in the 2019 International Latino Book Awards. |
