Rogasik, Juliette

Juliette Rogasik is a Comparative Literature and Film Studies student at King's College, London. She was born in Paris and grew up in Manhattan. After having spent 8 months in an American suburban town in her third year of high school, she decided to write a novel that somehow brings up the superficiality of suburbia's carefully manicured perfection. Underneath, a homogenous consumer society walled in on itself, trapped in the monotonous boredom of conventionality. She was also very inspired by Richard Adam's Watership Down, which she saw less as a story about rabbits than a powerful anecdote
