Biographical Note
Norman Manea was born on July 19, 1936 in Bukovina,
Romania. During World War II, Manea and his family were sent to a concentration camp
in Transnistria. They all survived. He returned to his hometown, where he excelled
in school. His first profession was engineering, and graduated from the Construction
Institute in Bucharest specializing in hydrotechnique. Following several works of
published fiction, he turned to writing full–time in 1974. To date, Manea has
published approximately twenty novels, short stories, and essays, and has received
several awards. Many of his works focus on Judaism, life in communist Romania, and
the Holocaust. Forced into exile in 1986, Manea
eventually emigrated to the United States. He lives in New York City.
Scope and Content Note
The collection is comprised mainly of drafts and translations of Manea's literary
works. Also included are correspondence, transcripts of interviews, and audio-visual
materials.
