Autor

Born in 1960 in Aki, Japan, Yasuhiko Nishizawa is an award-winning author of mystery and science fiction novels. His works are part of the 'shin-honkaku' movement, which aims to preserve the puzzle-solving joy of Golden Age mystery writing while refreshing the genre with exciting, original twists. Nishizawa got the idea for The Man Who Died Seven Times after watching the movie Groundhog Day and wondering what would happen if a detective were stuck in a time loop like Bill Murray. Jesse Kirkwood is a literary translator working from Japanese into English. The recipient of the 2020 Harvill Secker Young Translators' Prize, his translations include The Noh Mask Murder by Akimitsu Takagi (Pushkin Vertigo), The Kamogawa Food Detectives by Hisashi Kashiwai, Tokyo Express by Seicho Matsumoto and A Perfect Day to Be Alone by Nanae Aoyama.
