Catherine Safonoff, Le Mineur et le Canari: Combining the lightness of everyday existence with the seriousness of traumatic memories and switching with a constant fluidity from one register to another, Safonoff’s novel has the elegance of a butterfly fluttering towards the depths of the human soul. An old lady suffering from depression seeks comfort from a psychoanalyst, with whom she immediately falls in impossible, enchanted love. Fantasy comes into play, but this narrative inspired by autobiographical events also casts an acutely lucid gaze on the world, its failings, its small joys and un-mendable wounds, and is ceaselessly tugged along by a self-deprecation that is at once humorous and melancholic. The tightrope walker is on the rope, moving ahead chapter by short chapter, and keeps us in suspense until the end, leaving a permanent smile on our lips: she doesn’t fall, and the reader is carried away on the narrative. (Jury selection of the Swiss Literature Prize, transl. by Andrea Mason Willfratt)

Andrea Fazioli, Uno splendido inganno: Guido Moretti is a man of the highest integrity, who has worked all his life as an accountant, first in Italy, then in Switzerland. One day, someone robs the service station where he works. No one is hurt, but Guido alone notices something, a small detail he cannot get out of his mind. Shortly afterwards, he retires. So, is this to be the start of life of monotony? Of just going for walks and playing cards? Not a bit of it. Guido is a man of regular habits and an irreproachable way of life, but he becomes captivated by the beautiful and provocative Vanessa, a professional confidence trickster. Can she really be in love with him? Or is she after something? And if so, what? The backdrop to the story is Zürich, an excessively wealthy and clean city, whose vices are concealed beneath the manicured lawns of well-appointed villas, while the events set in Ascona and Milan highlight the nervous tension between North and South, a tension typical of Italian-speaking Switzerland. Fazioli tells a story of adventure and suspense – in which no one is what they seem. For all their confidence tricks, the fraudsters are perhaps more genuine than the austere citizens who make money, collect original paintings and live in sumptuous residences, in a round of crowded cocktail parties and hushed conversations beside the lake...
