Guest of the book fair
Peter Balko graduated in screenwriting and film dramaturgy at the VŠMU in Bratislava, where he currently teaches. His prosaic debut Vtedy v Lošonci (Once Upon a Time in Lošonc – KK Bagala 2015) has received many accolades, including the 2015 Anasoft Litera Teachers’ Prize and has been translated into Czech, Polish and German. The close of 2019 saw the publication of Balko’s second novel Østrov (KK Bagala), which featured on the 2020 Anasoft Litera ten best books shortlist. Balko is one of the organisers of the multi-genre Medzihmla festival in his native Lučenec.
