Carmen Stephan, It's all true: Guided by stars, four men set sail from north-east Brazil to see their president. Sixty-one days later they arrive as heroes. Orson Welles plans a film about their journey, but one of the four is swept overboard during filming and disappears. «It’s All True» is an understated but complex novella based on real-life events, taking its title from Orson Welles’ unfinished film. Carmen Stephan’s novella is a beautiful, pensive book with shades of the Old Man and the Sea. The precise yet dream-like writing explores familiar ideas about truth and fiction in a striking and memorable way. Clearly influenced by magic realism and with a pleasing sense of mystery, the novella is full of vivid turns of phrase and striking similes. It’s All True is a philosophical, reflective book, which delights in small descriptive details. The tone is calm, wistful and uncynical – reminiscent of Peter Stamm’s writing – and the narrative’s open, ingenuous style makes for a delightfully heady reading experience.

Urs Widmer, Reise an den Rand des Universums: «No author in his right mind writes an autobiography». Against the fear that this would be the end of one’s material it helps to know that a narration of one’s life always invents a life from memories. Urs Widmer proves this in a playfully ironic and at the same time melancholic recount of his youth during which almost everything happens to him by sheer luck or misfortune. Satirising the species he starts with his conception which he invents with the same relish he describes his path to literature: all the way from being a toddler and hearing the clattering of his father’s typewriter to the moment in which his own typewriter starts writing on its own.
