This year at TNPS we’re going to try shed some light on the international rights deals happening where the English-language sun doesn’t shine.
International rights deals of English-language content are covered pretty extensively in the English-language trade media, but the rest of the world is rarely mentioned.
This year at TNPS we’re going to try shed some light on the international rights deals happening where the English-language sun doesn’t shine.
The Helsinki Literary Agency has just announced a Japan and Arab markets deal for “Beasts of the Sun”, the debut title by Iida Turpeinen that won the Helsingin Sanomat literary prize last year.
The Japanese-language rights have been acquired by Kawade Shobo Shinsha, in a deal via Tuttle-Mori Agency.
World Arabic-language rights go to Sherif Bakr‘s Al Arabi publishing house in Egypt.
More information – in English of course. This is Finland, after all – on the Helsinki Literary Agency website.
