BookTalks: Nelio Biedermann

Experience Nelio Biedermann, the author behind the novel 'Lázár' at BookTalks on Tuesday 25 August.

Lázár tells the story of a Hungarian noble family across the twentieth century. The novel begins when Lajos von Lázár is born with watery blue eyes and jellyfish-like skin. He is born into a deceitful family that has lost several members to the forest beyond the estate, while ahead lie world wars and totalitarian regimes that will soon cause the Europe they know to crumble.

The Swiss author Nelio Biedermann achieved his international breakthrough with 'Lázár', a gothic novel about how the human mind is shaped by loss, trauma and secrets. Experience him in conversation about the novel at BookTalks.

After the talk, we invite you to join us for social dining, where you can stay and continue both the conversation and the fun.
