Adam Rapp

Adam Rapp says that when he was working on his chilling, compulsively readable young adult novel 33 SNOWFISH, he was haunted by several questions. Among them: "When we have nowhere to go, who do we turn to? Why are we sometimes drawn to those who are deeply troubled? How far do we have to run before we find new possibilities?"

At once harrowing and hypnotic, 33 SNOWFISH--which was nominated as a Best Book for Young Adults by the American Library Association--follows three troubled young people on the run in a stolen car with a kidnapped baby in tow. With the language of the street and lyrical prose, Adam Rapp hurtles the reader into the world of lost children, a world that is not for the faint of heart. His narration captures the voices of t

Laurent Mauvignier

Laurent Mauvignier was born in Tours (France) in 1967. He graduated from the Beaux-Art (plastic arts) in 1991.

He has published several novels with the Editions de Minuit and his books have been translated in several countries, among them In the Crowd by Faber and Faber (2008). His novels try to map out reality while confronting what cannot be voiced and the limits of what can be said.

His words attempt to articulate absence and sorrow, love and lack; their endeavour is to hold back what sifts through the fingers and through the years.
