Author Dimitré Dinev will be back in his native Bulgaria on November 11 2008 to give a reading from his works the the Aula of Sofia University St Kliment Ohridski. Dinev lives permanently in Austria, working as a free-lance writer.

Born in Plovdiv in 1968, he graduated from the German Gymnasium Berthold Brecht in Pazardjik in 1987 and moved to Vienna three years later, where he studied philosophy and Russian philology. Since 1991, he has been writing scripts, stories, theatre plays and essays in German, with his best-known work so far being Engelszungen (Angels' Tongues). This latter has since been translated into Bulgarian (as Ангелски езици/Angelski ezitsi), where it has also become a top seller.

In 2003, he received Austrian citizenship.

The literary reading starts at 6pm. It is organised by the Austrian embassy in Bulgaria, the Austrian library at Sofia University, the Goethe-Institut, the German-Bulgarian Centre for Meetings of the Saxony-Anhalt Bundesländer in Plovdiv, and the Robert Bosch Stiftung.
