The award-winning New Zealand author, Nigel Cox, has authorized me to translate two of his novels into German. He based his decision on my long-standing links with New Zealand, my expert knowledge of contemporary German and my experience as a translator.

Nigel Cox has published five novels so far. I am translating Skylark Lounge (2000) and Dirty Work (1987, reprint 2006). Publishers interested in the German versions of these novels are welcome to contact me.
