Joel Dicker Biography & Facts
Joël Dicker (born 16 June 1985) is a Swiss novelist. Early life Dicker attended College Madame the Staël in Geneva. At the age of 19, he enrolled at the Cours Florent in Paris. After one year, he returned to Switzerland to attend law school, where he received his Master of Laws from the University of Geneva in 2010. Career In 2010, after Dicker had won the Prix des écrivains genevois (Geneva Writers’ Prize), a prize for unpublished manuscripts, Parisian editor Bernard de Fallois acquired Dicker's debut novel Les derniers jours de nos pères (The Final Days of Our Fathers). The book was published the same year. In September 2012, de Fallois published Dicker's La Vérité sur l’Affaire Harry Quebert (The Truth About the Harry Quebert Affair). The book was translated into 32 languages and won several prizes, e.g., the Grand Prix du Roman de L'Académie Française and the prix Goncourt des lycéens in 2012. Dicker's third novel, Le Livre des Baltimore, was released on 26 September 2015. Dicker's fourth novel, La disparition de Stephanie Mailer, was released in March 2018. In March 2021, he announced via a video on Twitter that he was leaving the Fallois publishing house on 1 January 2022 to create his own publishing house. The small Fallois publishing house ceased its activity following this departure, in accordance with the wishes of its founder, who had died three years earlier. In October 2021, he launched Éditions Rosie & Wolfe, named after a woman, Rosina, who introduced him to the pleasure of reading and after his grandfather, who gave him a taste for writing. In December 2023, he announced the publication of his latest thriller, A Wild Animal, released on 27 February 2024.
