Europa Authors on Tour in October!
This month, three Europa authors will be visiting the country to promote their latest books and discuss literature in translation.
Kicking off the month will be French author Eric-Emmanuel Schmitt—playwright, screenwriter and author of The Most Beautiful Book in the World and Three Women in a Mirror, among others. Eric-Emmanuel will be at La Maison Française of NYU on October 14th for a talk entitled "French Literature in the Making," where he will be joined by French journalist Olivier Barrot.
In 2012, Italian author Viola di Grado released her debut novel 70% Acrylic 30% Wool, winner of the Campiello 1st Novel Award and shortlisted for the Strega Prize--at the impressive age of 23. Viola will be visiting literary festivals in the United States and Canada to promote her new book:
**10/17, San Francisco: Litquake
**10/19 & 10/20, Calgary: Wordfest
**10/21 & 10/22, Vancouver: Vancouver Writer's Fest
**10/26, Toronto: International Festival of Authors
**10/28, Chicago: Italian Cultural Institute of Chicago
Lastly, everyone has been buzzing about Europa's lead fall title (and our first hardback!), The Last Banquet by Jonathan Grimwood. Jon will be touring the Northeast, kicking off with a very special evening of storytelling and conversation at NYC's Housing Works bookstore cafe on Monday, October 21st. Special guests include Matt Gross, Charlotte Druckman, and Gideon Lewis-Krauss. RSVP on the Facebook event page to reserve your spot for what promises to be a truly memorable culinary evening, which may or may not include some pickled wolf's heart.
