Elena Graf

Award-winning novelist Elena Graf has been scribbling stories since high school. Her first novel, Occasions of Sin was published in 2012.

The novels in the Passing Rites series are set in Europe in the early 20th century and show how a noble family dealt with the momentous changes of the period. Two volumes in the series won both Golden Crown Literary Society and Rainbow Awards for historical fiction.

Elena Graf pursued a Ph.D. in philosophy and often explores difficult moral situations in her fiction. She ended up in the “accidental profession” of pub
