Paul Smith

    23 luglio 1957

    Originario dell'Inghilterra, Paul emigrò in Germania negli anni '70, diventando consulente per numerose grandi aziende tedesche. Questo viaggio transatlantico ha plasmato profondamente la sua voce letteraria, creando un mix linguistico unico in cui inglese e tedesco conversano attivamente. La sua scrittura esplora lo spazio affascinante in cui culture e lingue si intersecano, esaminando le sfumature di identità ed espressione che emergono da tali incontri. I lettori possono aspettarsi narrazioni ricche della trama dell'esperienza biculturale e dell'innovazione linguistica.
