To follow up last year’s major commitment towards the Polish book market, NORLA will be attending the Book Fair in Warsaw between 25-29th of May.
Roy Jacobsen and Anneliese Pitz will also be taking part, presenting the Polish translation of their novel The Man Who Loved Siberia.
There will be a Norwegian stand at the fair organised by NORLA. You will find us in Sala Mamurowa in the Cultural Palace on stand 121. Here you will amongst other things find a reading area where we will be reading Norwegian books in Polish translation. There will also be an express Norwegian course for those of you who want to learn some Norwegian.
We invite the audience to participate at our events!

The participants in NORLA’s New Voices program will this autumn put into practice what they have learned during the workshops, and meet publishers and/or readers in real life. The goal is to support the sale and dissemination of their books into more languages – on the way to Bologna.
During the International Book Fair in Krakow, NORLA is hosting a book trade meeting featuring presentations by New Voices authors Arne Lindmo, Gøril Sæther, and Pernille Radeid. In addition, Norwegian agents will meet with representatives from the Polish publishing industry.
The event is organized in collaboration with the Royal Norwegian Embassy in Warsaw.
NORLA is taking part in the Shanghai Children’s Book Fair with a stand designed for meetings and professional networking. The two illustrators/authors Øyvind Torseter and Marianne Gretteberg Engedal (Skinkeape) will participate in the fair’s professional program and panel discussions. Both also serve on the jury for the Norwegian illustration exhibition at Bologna 2026.
In addition, several Norwegian publishers/agents will take part.
The initiative is carried out in collaboration with the Royal Norwegian Consulate in Shanghai.
