From Tracy Fisher in WME, ---2022 Frankfurt Book Fair updated:
Following the Frankfurt Book Fair, I wanted to highlight our longtime client, Mohsin Hamid. As you may have seen, Mohsin gave the incredible keynote address at this year’s fair, where he spoke about the importance of writing in a time of great division:
“As our world turns away from cooperation, novels become all the more important. In a world that seems to be about to enter a phase of darkness, novels are a pile of embers that we hold in our hands, the embers of possibility. It reminds us that together we can renew our world.”
“当我们的世界越来越远离合作时,小说变得愈发重要。在一个似乎即将进入黑暗期的世界里,小说是我们手中蕴涵着希望的余烬。它提醒我们可以一起找回美好的世界。”
During Frankfurt, we closed Spanish and Hungarian deals for Mohsin’s most recent, New York Times bestselling novel, THE LAST WHITE MAN.
As you continue to submit his latest title, please also keep in mind Mohsin’s impressive backlist and history. He is the author of four other novels (MOTH SMOKE, THE RELUCTANT FUNDAMENTALIST, HOW TO GET FILTHY RICH IN RISING ASIA, and EXIT WEST) and an essay collection (DISCONTENT AND ITS CIVILIZATIONS). Mohsin is a two-time Man Booker finalist and internationally bestselling novelist, published into forty languages.
