Luca Tahtieazym

An author with an unpronounceable name, originally from the South of France and currently living near La Rochelle, Luca Tahtieazym has published eight novels to date. Juggling with genres and styles, inspired by Steinbeck, Ellroy, Dard and Stephen King, he takes particular care over the plots of his books, striving to offer original stories and tormented and engaging characters. A Killer’s Game won the 2017 Francophone Plumes award. Back in 2001, after having read Philosophy and French at the University of Leeds and realising that being able to write a decent essay on Kant’s Categorical Imperative didn’t leave her with a great many career options, Alexandra Maldwyn-Davies decided to move to Paris, where she embarked on a career in writing and translation. She is currently working on two projects of her own: her first novel and a sourcebook, Women in Translation (a collection of writings and articles on translation from the female perspective). She has steadily built a successful freelance French-to-English literary translation business and can now boast that she does what she loves every day of her life: she tells stories. She lives in rural Finistère with her daughter (a future bilingual genius if ever she met one) and a motley crew of thirteen rescued dogs and cats.
