Guillermo Fadanelli
Yolanda Martínez
Guillermo Fadanelli was born in Mexico City in 1963.

He studied engineering and worked a number of odd jobs before beginning his literary career. In 1989, he founded the underground Mexico City journal Moho, and a year later published his first novel, Mexican Tales.

He has written a number of novels and short stories, and for magazines around the world. He also is known for his work as a video artist and a translator from the French.

He received the Premio Nacional de Literatura and the IMPAC CONARTE ITESM Prizes for Rock Hudson’s Other Face, and the Premio Nacional de Literatura Colima for Lodo, which was also nominated for the renowned Rómulo Gallegos Prize.

Fadanelli’s novels Will I See You at Breakfast? and Clarissa Already Has a Dead Man have been made into films.
