Wally Lamb
Wally Lamb (born October 17, 1950) is an American author known as the writer of the novels ''She's Come Undone'' and ''I Know This Much Is True'', both of which were selected for Oprah's Book Club.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher= Harper Collins )〕 He was the director of the Writing Center at Norwich Free Academy in Norwich from 1989 to 1998〔 and has taught Creative Writing in the English Department at the University of Connecticut.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher= Goodreads, Inc. )〕 ==Early life== Lamb was born to a working class family in Norwich, Connecticut.〔 Three Rivers, the fictional town where several of his novels are set, is based on Norwich and the nearby towns of New London, Willimantic, in Connecticut as well as Westerly, Rhode Island.〔 As a child, Lamb loved to draw and create his own comic books—activities which, he says, gave him "a leg up" on the imagery and colloquial dialogue that characterize his stories. He credits his ability to write in female voices, as well as male, with having grown up with older sisters in a neighborhood largely populated by girls. After graduating from high school, Lamb studied at the University of Connecticut during the turbulent early 1970s era of anti-war and civil rights protests and student strikes.〔 He holds a B.A. and an M.A. in Education from the University of Connecticut and a Master of Fine Arts in Writing from Vermont College.
