First sale for Chiquitita
May 11 2023
- I think it is the mix of the South American temperament that bubbles under the story in combination with the Norwegian melancholy that really appeals to me, and the language has a nice balance between poetic and readable, you can see that Pedro is a poet and a musician. And nothing can be wrong with a book that starts with a quote from my favorite artists (Adrianne Lenker).
- Very honored to publish this unique voice in Norwegian literature, says Martijn Couwenhowen publisher in Uitgeverij Oevers, securing the Dutch language rights for Chiquitita – now travelling the world!
