Francis Nenik – författare

Francis Nenik’s thrilling slice of narrative non-fiction Journey through a Tragicomic Century is about the life of the forgotten writer Hasso Grabner, told with great joy in language and love of absurdity. The journey takes us from the Young Communists in 1920s Leipzig to wartime Corfu, with Grabner falling from steelworks director to a vilified author banned from publishing his work in the GDR. If you're looking for a bizarre life history of a forgotten writer, Hasso Grabner certainly fits the bill.
