Ian Rankin Biografía y Hechos

Ian Rankin (Cardenden, Fife, 28 de abril de 1960) es un escritor escocés de novela policíaca creador del Inspector John Rebus. En junio de 2002 le fue concedida la Orden del Imperio Británico. Biografía La biografía oficial de Rankin afirma que, antes de ser escritor a tiempo completo, trabajó como recogedor durante la vendimia, porquero, recaudador de impuestos, periodista, secretario y músico punk.;[1]​ también fue brevemente tutor de literatura en la Universidad de Edimburgo. Tras graduarse en dicha universidad se mudó a Londres, donde residió cuatro años, y luego a la Francia rural para otros seis, durante los cuales desarrolló su carrera como novelista. En la actualidad vive en Edimburgo, está casado y tiene dos hijos, Jack y Kit.[cita requerida] Carrera como escritor Rankin no se veía a sí mismo desde el comienzo como un autor de novela policiaca: de hecho, consideraba sus dos primeras novelas, Knots and Crosses ("Nudos y cruces") y Hide and Seek ("El escondite") eran novelas de ámbito general, en la tradición de otros autores escoceses como Robert Louis Stevenson o incluso Muriel Spark (quien era el tema de la tesis doctoral inacabada de Ian Rankin), por lo que su clasificación como "obras de género" lo desconcertó. Otro novelista escocés, Allan Massie, con quien Rankin coincidió en la Universidad de Edimburgo, lo animó a seguir en esa línea: "¿quién querría ser un frío escritor académico, le dijo, pudiendo ser John Buchan?". Las novelas de la serie del Inspector Rebus se sitúan principalmente en Edimburgo, por lo que pertenecen al género que se ha denominado Tartan Noir. Cuatro de estas novelas fueron adaptadas para la televisión, y emitidas por ITV, con John Hannah en el papel principal. A comienzos de 2006, Ken Stott lo sustituyó en el papel de Rebus, y fue aclamado por muchos entusiastas de la serie como la perfecta encarnación del personaje. Rankin ha confirmado que pronto comenzará a trabajar en una serie de cinco o seis números del cómic Hellblazer, aunque también es posible que la historia se publique como novela gráfica independiente. En 2016 obtuvo el X Premio RBA de Novela Policiaca por su obra Perros salvajes (Even Dogs in the Wild), protagonizada por el Inspector John Rebus. Otros ámbitos: televisión, música Ian Rankin es un colaborador habitual del programa cultural de BBC Two, Newsnight Review. Además, un documental en tres partes sobre el tema del mal fue emitido por Channel 4 en diciembre de 2002. En 2005 presentó en BBC4 otro documental, de 30 minutos de duración, titulado Rankin on the Staircase ("Rankin en la escalera"), en el que explicaba la relación entre casos de asesinatos reales y la ficción novelesca. Ese mismo año colaboró con el músico folk Jackie Leven en el disco Jackie Leven Said. En 2007, Rankin apareció también en programas de la BBC4 explorando los posibles orígenes de su alter ego, John Rebus: con el título de Ian Rankin's Hidden Edinburgh ("El Edimburgo oculto de Ian Rankin") y Ian Rankin Investigates Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde ("Ian Rankin investiga al Dr. Jeckill y Mr. Hyde"), Rankin analizó el origen de su personaje, y los hechos que llevaron a su creación.
