Biografia e Jornada do Autor
Oliver Burkeman was born in Liverpool in 1975 and grew up in a household where newspapers, especially The Guardian, carried real prestige. The impulse to publish appeared early: as a primary-school child he made one-page newsletters for classmates. He was educated at Huntington School in York and went on to Christ’s College, Cambridge, where editing the student paper Varsity gave him crucial preparation for journalism.
