Former Picador Professor Alexander Chee has written a new short story for T-magazine’s Nov. 15 Travel issue. It is set in Leipzig and is one of three original short stories written exclusively for the magazine.

This week, former Picador Professor Alexander Chee published his second novel, The Queen of the Night. During his stay as Picador Professor in Leipzig in the winter term of 2012/13, Chee worked extensively on this novel, from which he also presented excerpts at a public reading. Early reviews of his long-awaited novel have been very favorable.

There are still spots available for both seminars taught by Prof. Alexander Chee in the upcoming semester. This may be of particular interest to those students planning to take the LC-III module in the future as Prof. Chee's class on graphic novels can count towards this module.
 
So if you're interested, hurry and sign up!
