Italian and American institutions, leading figures from the cultural, artistic, and economic sectors, as well as internationally renowned experts and professionals. A special opportunity to meet exceptional guests such as writers, filmmakers, historians, artists, Michelin-starred chefs, and influential figures from the Italian-American scene.
Sabine Schultz, Deputy Editorial Director of Neri Pozza Editore, recounts the deep and lasting connection between the Vicenza-based publishing house and American fiction. A journey that began in the 1950s with the “American Tradition” series, in which Neri Pozza published foundational authors like Melville, Emerson, and Hawthorne, and that continues today with some of the most celebrated international bestsellers. From Girl with a Pearl Earring by Tracy Chevalier to In the Garden of Beasts by Erik Larson, from Barbara Kingsolver to Viet Thanh Nguyen, and recent phenomena like the Blackwater saga, Neri Pozza’s American catalog is now among the most important in Italy. A unique opportunity to explore how literature from across the ocean has shaped the identity of one of the country’s most prestigious publishers.
