Sommaire:

Rodrigo Fres?n is the author of eleven works of fiction, including Kensington Gardens, Mantra, The Invented Part, winner of the 2018 Best Translated Book Award, and, most recently, Melvill. A self-professed referential maniac, his works incorporate many elements from science fiction (Philip K. Dick in particular) alongside pop culture and literary references. According to Jonathan Lethem, he's a kaleidoscopic, open-hearted, shamelessly polymathic storyteller, the kind who brings a blast of oxygen into the room. In 2017, he received the Prix Roger Caillois awarded by PEN Club France every year to both a French and a Latin American writer.

Will Vanderhyden received an MA in Literary Translation Studies from the University of Rochester. He has translated fiction by Carlos Labb?, Edgardo Cozarinsky, Alfredo Bryce Echenique, Juan Mars?, Rafael S?nchez Ferlosio, Rodrigo Fres?n, and Elvio Gandolfo. He received NEA and Lannan fellowships to translate another of Fres?n's novels, The Invented Part.
