Open Letter Fall 2008 Catalog

In some ways it’s a bit early to be posting our fall catalog (especially since the launch of the official Open Letter website is a few weeks off), but I recently got a number of requests for information about our first six titles, so I thought it would be easiest just to post a pdf version.

Click here for the complete catalog, which contains the following titles:

• Nobody’s Home by Dubravka Ugresic, translated from the Croatian by Ellen Elias-Bursac;

• The Pets by Bragi Olafsson, translated from the Icelandic by Janice Balfour;

• The Taker and Other Stories by Rubem Fonseca, translated from the Portuguese by Clifford Landers;

• The Conqueror by Jan Kjaerstad, translated from the Norwegian by Barbara Haveland;

• Vilnius Poker by Ricardas Gavelis, translated from the Lithuanian by Elizabeth Novickas;

• The Sailor from Gibraltar by Marguerite Duras, translated from the French by Barbara Bray.

And if you’re really interested, a pdf of all six covers is also available.
