The Foreign Rights Department
We take pride in working directly with publishers in as many countries as possible and maintaining close contact with publishers in places where we work with local subagents. We carefully foster long-lasting relationships between authors and their editors abroad, arranging publicity, marketing and foreign travel where required.
Our authors have won and been shortlisted for a raft of international literary awards, including the Prix Femina Étranger, the Prix Polar, the Martin Beck Award, Le Grand Prix des Lectrices de Elle and La Risa de Bilbao. Our recent international bestsellers have comprised crime, fantasy, historical fiction, literary fiction, commercial women's fiction, children's fiction and serious biography, history and memoir.
