Eshkol Nevo, born in Jerusalem in 1971, is one of Israel’s most successful living writers. His upcoming novel, The Last Interview (October, 2020), is a literary page-turner that delves into the deepening cracks in a carefully constructed public persona. His novels have all been bestsellers in Israel and published widely in translation. His novel Homesick was long-listed for the 2009 Independent Foreign Fiction Prize; World Cup Wishes was a finalist for the 2011 Kritikerpreis der Jury der Jungen Kritiker (Austria);
Neuland was included in the Independent’s 2014 Books of the Year in Translation; and Three Floors Up (Other Press, 2017) will be adapted for film by the acclaimed Italian director Nanni Moretti in 2020. Nevo owns and co-manages the largest private creative writing school in Israel and is a mentor to many up-and-coming young Israeli writers.
He couldn't decide whether to add a picture of a camera or one of himself, and in the end (I knew it), he posted a one of himself. Taken ten years ago.
