More congratulation to Elvia Wilk! Fireglory Pictures has purchased TV rights to her debut novel OVAL.

Taking place in the near future, OVAL is a deeply imaginative work of literary fiction that reflects the way Berlin has changed and paints a portrait of this culture-capital today and soon. Jeff VanderMeer praised it as “An extraordinarily accomplished debut novel,” while Jonatham Lethem writes, “Elvia Wilk’s Oval is a marvel. At the core of this seductive, acute, superbly contemporary update of midperiod J. G. Ballard lies a deep-beating, deep-dreaming heart.”
