A vacancy has arisen to supply a chapter on Ilija Trojanow's first novel, Die Welt ist gross und Rettung lauert überall (Hanser, 1996) for a volume on Trojanow which I am editing for the University of Wales Press in the Swansea Contemporary Writers Series.

 

The essay will be published in English and should be around 5-6,000 words. It can be on any aspect of the novel, possibly comparing it to the recent film version (dir. Stephan Komandarev).

 

The deadline is 30 September 2010. The volume is due to appear in late 2011.

 

Please write to me for further details.

 

 

Best wishes
