Next Comic Festival: Manuele Fior

Posted: March 3, 2011

I’m looking forward to flying to Linz, Austria for the 3rd edition of the forward-looking NextComic Festival this weekend, where, among other things, I will be interviewing precociously gifted Italian graphic novelist Manuele Fior, who won Best Book of the Year at the Angoulême International Comics Festival with Cinq milles kilomètres par seconde (5,000 kilometres per second) published by Atrabile, Geneva, Switzerland. He’s also adapted Mademoiselle Else from the novel by Alfred Schnitzler. Hope to see some of you there!
