Luis Leante


Luis Ramón Leante Chacón, commonly known as Luis Leante, is a Spanish novelist and Latin professor.
Leante graduated in Classical Philology from the University of Murcia. He has lived in Alicante since 1992, where he worked as a high school teacher until 2009. He published his first novel at age 20, but it was not until 2007, after winning the Alfaguara Prize with his novel See How Much I Love You, that he began to devote himself entirely to literature. His latest novel, Red Moon, published in Spain in 2009, is a gripping story between a writer and translator, between Alicante, Berlin and Istanbul.
