Sobre El Autor
Nota de desambiguación:
(eng) A Library of Congress entry suggests that Gay Head was a pseudonym for Margaret Hauser. She also wrote articles under the Gay Head pseudonym for Scholastic magazine in the late 1930s and early 1940s. On October 21, 2002, USA Today published an interview with Ruth Imler Langhinrichs. “From 1948 to 1952,” the article states, “Langhinrichs used the pseudonym Gay Head to answer teens' questions in a column in Scholastic magazine called ‘Boy Dates Girl.'” It seems that Gay Head must have been a in-house pseudonym, used by various Scholastic writers.

Seeing no book blurb and barely skimming over the authors' names ahead of time, I thought I was likely in for thoroughly girly fluff as a whole. But this book has a good mix of female and male authors with different styles along with a mix of guy and girl lead characters/perspectives. There's even a sci-fi love story (with characters who are older than YA, though).
Despite what the cute and groovy cover of the 1970s reprint edition of this 1960s collection says, not all of the stories are "warm and glowing." Some of them are the kind to leave you a little chilled, somber, or heart-achy. Or sort of annoyed. The collection is amusing here, touching there, and I'd say most of the stories have a refreshingly smart quality.
With the exception of Maureen Daly (who wrote one of my all-time favorite novels, Seventeenth Summer), this was my first time trying any of these authors, as far as I can recall. I'll search around for more titles to try from some of them.… (más)
