Un article sur Joe Haldeman

Voici un article en anglais sur Joe Haldeman.

Je vous mets le début :

"If you type the name “Joe Haldeman” in any search engine, you’ll find multiple entries that go into great detail about the man with degrees in physics, astronomy and writing. Not only has he won eighteen major writing awards, including the Damon Knight Memorial Grand Master Award for lifetime achievement, but this science fiction giant holds a Purple Heart after being drafted into Vietnam in the ‘60s. One of his most famous novels, The Forever War (1975), is based on his experiences as a combat engineer in Vietnam, and the novel went on to win the Hugo, Nebula, and Locus awards that year. The book is currently being taught in college classrooms throughout the U.S. Haldeman is currently working on the novel Earthbound, which completes the trilogy containing Marsbound and Starbound.

In addition to his novels, much of Haldeman’s short fiction has gone on to win more Hugos and Nebulas, as well as other distinguished industry awards. He’s been an adjunct professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the president of Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America, and he’s savvy at poker and more than decent at guitar playing. Chances are good you might see him at the next big science fiction convention or catch his lectures at a prestigious writing workshop, like Clarion.
