International Writers Series: Daniel Alarcón and Alejandro Zambra, hosted by Anderson Tepper
Born in Lima, Peru and raised in Birmingham, Alabama, Daniel Alarcón (pictured at left) has quickly established himself as one of the most important and influential of a new generation of Latin American writers, straddling both South and North America. He is the author of the novels Lost City Radio and At Night We Walk in Circles, and the story collection, War by Candlelight, from which his new graphic novel, City of Clowns (with illustrations by Sheila Alvarado), grew out of.
Alejandro Zambra (pictured at right), named one of Granta's Best Young Spanish Language Novelists, is a novelist and poet whose work has been heralded as "the dawn of a new era in Chilean literature." He is the author of the novels Bonsai, The Private Lives of Trees, and Ways of Going Home. His debut collection of stories, My Documents, was published earlier this year to rapturous reviews. "Zambra is the author of small classicsshort in length, but enormous in every other way," writes Mexican author Valeria Luiselli. "My Documents elevates him to an entirely new level."
