D.W. Linden
Showing just as much an affinity for the great outdoors as he does the written word, the American author and novelist D.W. Linden has been capturing the beauty of nature in all its glory on the page for quite some time now. Known for his ever evocative style of prose and imagination, he really brings to life the full expanse of the rural wilderness, with readers worldwide gaining a perspective on what it is that he’s writing about, regardless of whether they’ve come from there or not. With an almost ethereal quality to his work, he conjures up an almost forgotten way of life, and one that’s almost nostalgic, whilst not getting overly sentimental. This allows him to speak his mind, creating characters that allow the reader to find themselves anchored to the text, seeing the world through their eyes, giving the locations a sense of grounding. Creating landscapes and vistas is something which Linden excels at, but it is also the manner in which he brings it to life which is noteworthy as well. Seeing much of the country for himself, he would gain a first-hand perspective of everything that America had to offer, something which he still feels highly passionate about to this very day.
