Grisham John

Long before his name became synonymous with the modern legal thriller, he was working 60-70 hours a week at a small Southaven, Mississippi, law practice, squeezing in time before going to the office and during courtroom recesses to work on his hobby—writing his first novel.

Since first publishing „A Time to Kill“ in 1988, Grisham has written one novel a year (his other books are „The Firm“, „The Pelican Brief“, „The Client“, „The Chamber“, „The Rainmaker“, „The Runaway Jury“ etc. and all of them have become international bestsellers. There are currently over 300 million John Grisham books in print worldwide, which have been translated into 40 languages. Nine of his novels have been turned into films.
