Nino Haratischwili and Vincenzo Latronico are two of Europe’s most successful writers, both back home in Germany and Italy and also internationally in translation. Born in the former Soviet republic of Georgia, today living in Berlin and writing in German, Nino is nicknamed Germany’s Elena Ferrante for her page-turning epics of female friendship. She is also a well-known playwright and director, and outspoken champion of independent Georgia. Vincenzo was born in Rome, lives in Milan and spent many years in Berlin. He is an art critic, novelist and Italian translator of George Orwell, Oscar Wilde and many others. His breath-taking psychological study of a woke millennial couple in Berlin, Perfection, was a major critical success.
