The Leipzig Book Fair runs through the 17th, and an early highlight is the Prize of the Leipzig Book Fair -- which is actually three prizes, for fiction, non, and translation.
The translation prize went to Eva Hesse, for her translation of Ezra Pound's Cantos.
The fiction prize went to Leben ('Life'), by David Wagner; see the Rowohlt foregn rights page for (English) information.
