『さよならを待つふたりのために』の著者について

ジョン・マイケル・グリーンは、『さよならを待つふたつの星(The Fault in Our Stars)』の著者であり、現代のヤングアダルト小説界を代表する作家です。1977年8月24日にインディアナポリスで生まれたグリーンの、小児病院での学生チャプレンとしての経験は、末期の病や意味の探求について執筆する際のアプローチに深い影響を与えました。

『さよならを待つふたつの星』は、癌を患う二人のティーンエイジャーを通じて、愛、死、そして宇宙の無関心といったテーマを探求しています。この作品は、彼が若い患者たちと接した経験や、2010年に16歳で甲状腺癌のため亡くなったファン、エスター・グレース・アールとの友情からインスピレーションを得たものです。

グリーンはまた、プリンツ賞を受賞した『アラスカを追いかけて(Looking for Alaska)』、『ケイトリンはたくさんいる(An Abundance of Katherines)』、『タートルズ・オール・ザ・ウェイ・ダウン(Turtles All the Way Down)』の著者でもあります。彼は弟のハンクと共にYouTubeチャンネル「Vlogbrothers」を共同設立し、熱狂的なオンラインコミュニティ「Nerdfighteria」を築き上げました。

グリーンの著書は世界中で5,000万部以上を売り上げ、55の言語に翻訳されており、『さよならを待つふたつの星』は史上最も売れた本の一冊としてその名を残しています。
