Fault Lines
by Nancy Huston

Friday 29th  February, 1.00pm: Nancy Huston introduces her novel 'Fault Lines'

Nancy Huston

Her novel The Mark of the Angel won the Grand Prix des Lectrices de Elle, the Canadian Jewish Fiction Book Award, the Torgi Award and was shortlisted for the Giller Prize. A bestseller in France, Fault Lines won the Prix Femina and is being translated into 18 langagues. Nancy Huston lives in Paris with her husband, the writer Tzvetan Todorov.
