Jean-Claude Mourlevat (born March 22, 1952, in Ambert) is a French writer, known for his fairy-tale, fable, and fantasy-inspired novels intended for young people, for which he has won multiple awards, including the Astrid Lingren Memorial Award. Mourlevat was born March 22, 1952, in Ambert, the fifth of six children, and the son of a miller and homemaker. He spent his childhood in Auvergne, where he "helped tend the family farm, where they raised cows, pigs, rabbits, and hens." Beginning in 1962, he attended the Blaise Pascal boarding school, where he "spent eight years at a boarding school... the rules were harsh, the teachers strict and he felt constantly homesick and unhappy. He has said in interviews that literature became his salvation." He later evoked this part of his life in an autobiographical novel Je voudrais rentrer à la maison. More information...
