Jodi Picoult

Jodie Picoult's writing biography began at the age of 5 - the girl wrote a story about a lobster that was misunderstood. The problem of misunderstanding, alienation and loneliness occupies an important place in the work of the prose writer to this day. Picolt's works have been translated into 34 languages, and their total circulation is almost 15 million copies.

The future writer was born on Long Island, New York, in May 1966. Jody has a younger brother. The girl was most influenced by her mother and grandmother, who worked as teachers. When Jodie turned 13, the family moved to New Hampshire, where she graduated from Smithtown High School.

Behind the prose writer, he studied literary skills at the college at Princeton University, among whose teachers Picolt singles out the writer Mary Morris, and a master's degree at Harvard University. In search of stories, the student called home and asked if there were cases of violence and incest in the family.

Although she published her first stories while still in college, the future bestselling author changed many classes after completing her education. Picolt has worked as an English Language Arts teacher, copywriter and technical editor. Her debut novel, Songs of a Humpback Whale, was published in 1992.

The genre of Picolt's books is a topical family drama with elements of a detective story. Characters often move from one work to another. Thus, the main character of Fatal Coincidence, Nina Frost, who killed the alleged rapist of her son, is mentioned in the novel Nineteen Minutes, the plot of which is based on clarifying the motives of the young man who shot his classmates. Picolt's bibliography includes dozens of works.

Picolt's books have been filmed several times. The most famous film adaptation is the film My Guardian Angel, based on the novel Angel for Sister. Abigail Breslin, a young Oscar nominee, played the role of a girl suing her parents who use her as a donor for a sick sister. Like Piccolt, Breslin does not hide her nationality: both the writer and the actress are Jewish.

The plot of "Fragile Soul" reminds of the plot of "Angel for Sister" - parental attention and love are again given to the sick, not the healthy child. Ethan, the 9-year-old nephew of the protagonist of the novel "Look for the second time", has health problems (intolerance to sunlight), which tells about the struggle of the small people of Abenaki against the construction of a shopping center on the site of a family cemetery.

In Lessons of Mercy, Picolt gives readers a glimpse of the Holocaust through the eyes of a Nazi officer. The plot of The Thousand and One Nights is woven into the canvas of the bestseller: a potential victim manages to survive thanks to the executioner's interest in her stories.

In the opening remarks to The Last Rule, the prose writer thanks her husband and children and says that if she had no one and nothing but these four people, she would still be the richest woman in the world. Jody met her future husband Timothy van Leer in 1989 while attending college. The writer's children are Samantha, Kyle and Jake.

Jodie and Timothy's middle child, at 6 years old, had middle ear cancer. Kyle's illness is the only sad event in the writer's personal life.

The New Hampshire novelist wakes up at 5 am every day and jogs with her friend Joan Collinson, to whom Time To Say Goodbye is about. At 7 o'clock he returns, has breakfast with dishes prepared by her husband, and answers emails for an hour.

Then he writes and edits works until 4 pm. Now Jodie's children are almost adults (her daughter co-authored the book Between the Lines), and before all Timothy took care of the offspring.

Evenings of the writer are devoted to communication with family and pets - dogs, donkeys and geese. Jody is unhappy with the curliness of her red hair, which, judging by the photo, looks charming, and has repeatedly made unsuccessful attempts to straighten her hair.

In 2019, Picolt's novel Spark of Hope was published in Russian, in which the problem of terrorism is intertwined with the theme of the ethics of abortion.

A quote from the work “Erase the stigma and you will see a teacher, neighbor or sister next to you” will make the most categorical champions of morality think.
