ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Leïla Slimani
Leïla Slimani nasceu em 1981, em Rabat, Marrocos, numa família de expressão francófona. Aos 17 anos, partiu para Paris, onde estudou Ciências Políticas.
Antes de se dedicar à escrita, trabalhou como jornalista. Publicou o primeiro romance – No jardim do ogre – em 2014 e obteve imediato reconhecimento da crítica e dos leitores, conquistando o Prémio Mamounia.
Canção doce confirmou o seu lugar nas letras francesas e valeu-lhe a atribuição do prestigiado Prémio Goncourt, o mais importante prémio literário francês. Além dos romances, Leïla Slimani publicou vários livros de ensaio e opinião, e mantém atividade cívica em defesa dos direitos humanos.
Liderou uma campanha para ajudar as mulheres marroquinas a reclamar os seus direitos, o que lhe valeu o Prémio Simone de Beauvoir para a Liberdade das Mulheres.
