著者について
M.E. Wright is a Midwest native with a passion for delving into the realms of fiction and nonfiction. As a social scientist and writer, she starts each project with a simple question: 'What if…'
She loves diving into dystopian and speculative science fiction, where she doesn't shy away from the brutal realities of a world shaped by shifting ideologies. With a knack for social commentary and a talent for creating characters you can't help but root for (or against), she's all about crafting stories that make you think, laugh, and maybe even cringe a little.
On a personal note, Wright prefers soda to pop, measures the distance between places in time rather than driving distance, and has been known to cheer the Bears, even though she currently lives in Packer country.
Drawing inspiration from her Midwest roots, Wright infuses the novel with authentic details and vivid descriptions that transport readers to a not-so-distant future. Through her compelling storytelling, she delves into themes of identity, parenthood, and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity. Wright's unique voice shines through her lyrical prose, capturing the essence of both heartache and hope as Sam grapples with the profound implications of the Fatherhood Mandate.
Wright exhibits a masterful blend of speculative fiction and coming-of-age storytelling. With The Fatherhood Mandate, she establishes herself as a powerful voice in the literary world, leaving readers eagerly anticipating her next thought-provoking work. By shedding light on important social issues and challenging societal norms, Wright's prose offers a poignant reflection on the complexities of human relationships and the potential consequences of a world shaped by shifting ideologies.
