There
is now a Tamil translation of 'Fake I.D.', a YA novel by Hazel Edwards. Originally published by Lothian in 2002, with a Canadian Vanwell edition
(2005), a film option was taken up, but flopped due to financial issues, rights
were reverted, and it became an e-book and then it was studied by university
students in Chennai.
Now
translated into Tamil, it will be launched in Chennai, India, by the Consul
General on 17 September. The publisher is Cre-A which publishes it with a new
cover. Prof Judith Rodriguez is kindly launching the translated book as she
will be in India for PEN. International.
'Fake
ID' is a YA family history mystery based on 14 year-old Zoe who finds on the
day of her grandmother's funeral that her Gran had a fake ID all her Australian
life.
