International interest is increasing, we are happy for announcing a two-book deal to Kiepenheuer & Witch in Germany.

Aranzazu Sumalla, acquisition editor at Ediciones B (Penguin Random House Spain) secured world Spanish rights for Havets kirkegård, she says: “This is an intense novel with a captivating and relentless plot that keeps the reader hooked from the first pages on. All this is accompanied by compelling characters, vibrant and exotic settings as well as a solid historical background that allows us to discover some unknown pages from Norway’s past but also from the years that have carved 20th century Europe as we know it.”

Welcome Sandra Kolstad
Two Words for Destruction is a highly praised debut novel by the composer, musician, singer and author Sandra Kolstad. Kolstad writes with a precise,clear literary voice a story of love, breakdown and submission, about how easy it is to disappear within the will of another. Love and power are masterly investigated in Kolstad’s debut novel. – " small wonder of a book … luminous, reflected prose about the beauties and horrors of love" says the critic and author Kjetil Røed in his review.

My Men by Victoria Kielland sold to Dalva in France
First sale for My Men by Victoria Kielland, pre-emptet to Dalva in France. The publisher, Juliette Ponce, says:
- The author has such a talent for capturing the contradiction lying under any love obsession: the urgency and the longing, the exaltation and the abyssal loneliness. There’s so much in this book, it is such a rewarding and fulfilling read! I think Kielland’s novel, which perfectly breaks away from all the clichés and representations we tend to have about women (just like her character does) would feel very at ease in our catalogue.

Drafts from the Mariana Trench by Ida Lødemel Tvedt is now sold to Kommode Verlag in Switzerland for publication in German translation.
The publisher, Annette Beger says:
“Ida Lødemel Tvedts Essays in Marianegropen are sensual, direct, courageous, witty, pictorial, energetic and highly sensitive. One gets the feeling of a story, like in a novel, even though the essays can also stand for themselves. Ida Lødemel Tvedt immediately captivated me with her unique perception and her ability to describe the “in-between” in a way in which I believe anyone can experience while reading this book.“ Congratulations dear Ida (Facebook) and Kommode Verlag!
Marianegropen is so far sold to Klim in Denmark and to Kommode Verlag in Switzerland.
