Wonderful week in Italy with Equilibri and Hamelin between May 9th and 16th giving talks in schools and libraries. Also very excited to discover my Italian book Destini Incrociati, (Feltrinelli), which does not have a British publisher, came second out of 36 books nominated for the Hamelin Associazione Culturale Book prize. A big thank you to Gabriela Zucchini at Equilibri, and Nicola Galli Laforest at Hamelin, for inviting me over.
