NORLA and Norwegian authors to Guadalajara

In collaboration with the Norwegian Embassy in Mexico, NORLA will once again have a stand at the book fair in Guadalajara, Mexico.
FIL Guadalajara is the world’s largest Spanish-language book fair, with a significant number of visitors and industry participants from all over Latin America and the rest of the world. NORLA has been present for several years, and in 2022, we had our own stand for the first time. This year, authors Jens K. Styve and Nina Lykke have been invited to participate in the book fair’s program, and two Norwegian literary agents will also be present at the Norwegian stand to get to know the Mexican and Latin American publishing industry.

The book fair runs from November 25th to December 3rd, while the industry days – when NORLA will have a stand – take place from November 25th to 29th.
NORLA’s stand number is ÑÑ10-12 in the international exhibition hall. To set up meetings, please contact Oliver Møystad or Andrine Pollen.

New Voices Authors at a book trade meeting in Krakow

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.
