| About The Author | The International Parliament of Writers (IPW) was created after an appeal launched in July 1993 by 300 writers from all over the world, in reaction to the increase of writers’ assassinations in Algeria. The signatories of this appeal affirmed the need for a new international structure capable of organizing a concrete solidarity with persecuted writers, in the form of a Cities of Asylum Network. The publication of their annual review, AUTODAFE, was a collaboration between various publishing houses around the world: Seven Stories Press in the US, Anagrama in Spain, Agra in Athens, Denoel in France, and Feltrinelli in Italy. |
“Autodafe is full of interesting, well-written and alarming material, from writers all over the world, both famous and less famous. It offers a valuable and at times disturbing report on the state of literary freedom at the beginning of the 21st century.” –Margaret Drabble |
