Lina Wolff
Lina Wolff (b. 1973), lived and worked in Italy and Spain as an interpreter and translator before returning to her home country of Sweden. During her years in Valencia and Madrid, she penned her first work, a short story collection titled Many People Die Like You. Her first full-length novel, Bret Easton Ellis and the Other Dogs, received instant acclaim, winning numerous awards. It was followed by the equally successful The Polyglot Lovers, which received the premier award for Swedish literature, the August Prize. Lina Wolff now lives in southern Sweden. Her latest title is the universally lauded Carnality.
