Richard Morgan

In 2007, the literature was replenished with another "Black Man". To the heartfelt Yesenin's poem, over which Maxim Gorky himself wept, and the novel by the Russian writer Vasily Golovachev, a book by the British science fiction writer Richard Morgan was added. This work did not remain without high praise, having received the Arthur Clarke award a year after its first publication. By the way, three years earlier the author had fought for the same award, but with a different creation - “Market Forces”.

At the end of the first autumn month of 1965, September 24, in the capital of Great Britain, a son was born to John and Margaret - a future writer, whose full name sounds like Richard Kingsley Morgan. However, the child's childhood was not spent in London, but in Heatherset, a village located near Norwich.

Subsequently, recalling his early years, the man talked about them in an unsurpassed manner characteristic of him:

The boy grew up unlike his peers - he was a loner by nature, spent time reading and getting to know music, did not like team games and did not understand why his few friends attached great importance to beer and finding girlfriends.

Everything changed as he grew up - closer to adulthood, the guy learned the taste of alcoholic beverages, weed and emotions from his first and unhappy love, which noticeably spoiled his first year of study at Queens' College Cambridge.

In the 2nd year, Richard settled down, considering that it was foolish to give up the opportunities and privileges provided to him by life. With renewed vigor, he began to study history, with a bias in politics and philosophy, completely changing his social circle.

After graduation, Morgan took up teaching a foreign language in order to fulfill his two cherished dreams - travel and write. As a result, after almost 15 years of teaching at the University of Glasgow, where he ended up after Istanbul, Madrid and London, his first printed work was born, which was preceded by stories, newspaper articles and screenplays for films.

Richard's debut big work - the first part of the trilogy about Takeshi Kovach "Altered Carbon" - immediately fell in love with both the readership and the critics who awarded the author a literary prize.

The masters of cinematography also did not stay away from the science fiction novel. The rights to the film adaptation were bought by Joel Silver, a Hollywood director who gave the world two Die Hard, 4 parts of Lethal Weapon and The Matrix.

In 2003, the continuation of the dystopia "Broken Angels" saw the light of day, and after another 2 years, "Awakened Furies" appeared. The thriller Market Forces was published between them. Further, the writer's bibliography was replenished with the already mentioned "Black Man" and the cycle "A country worthy of its heroes", which includes three works.

Morgan's rich creative biography also includes collaboration with Marvel Comics, Liber Primus Games and Starbreeze.

As for his personal life, little is known about her - he is happily married to a Spanish woman, Virginia Geme Cottinelli-Herrero. The beloved woman gave her husband the only heir. Before the prologue to his creations (for example, to the same "Carbon"), Morgan did not forget to mention his dear relatives - parents, spouse, best friend, Caroline Morgan (presumably sister) and others.

The writer also succeeded in fulfilling his second passionate desire - his page on the social network "Twitter" replete with numerous photographs from travels and trips to different cities and countries of the world.

By May 2019, he managed to enjoy refreshing lemonade and tuna steak under onions in Lisbon, admire the marketable neighborhood of pickled cucumbers and olives with sweets in Spain. Each of his photographs was accompanied by a comic witty commentary, and sometimes strong words.

In view of the originality, the official site of the Briton deserves special attention. Here Richard shares with his fans the latest news (for example, about the upcoming online sales), contacts for feedback, the necessary links and reflections on burning topics, sometimes without hesitation in expressions.

In October 2018, Richard admitted that he is now reading to his 7-year-old son The Weirdstone of Brisingamen Alan Garner and both men of the Morgan family are truly fascinated by the plot.

In 2018, to the delight of fans of Richard Morgan's work, the long-awaited "Thin Air" was published, which tells about life on Mars. In an interview after the publication of the book, the author admitted that he had not read any fiction about the Red Planet along the way with writing, except that Robert Heinlein almost half a century ago.

At the end of May 2019, a graphic comic version of the novel was planned. A year earlier, in February 2018, a series based on Altered Carbon premiered on Netflix. Starring actor Yuel Kinnaman, who played in Suicide Squad and The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.
