Every year the Polish Book Institute prepares the New Books from Poland catalogue for publishers and translators around the world, presenting the best books from recent years, as well as the most interesting phenomena in contemporary Polish literature, and timeless classics. And every spring we publish a supplement, presenting the most interesting books that were published in recent months.
In this year’s spring edition of the catalogue you can find novels, short stories, reportages and an essay. Amongst the writers there are some household names such as Mariusz Szczygieł and Jan Polkowski, promising novelist Jakub Małecki, well-known abroad storyteller Hubert Klimko-Dobrzaniecki, and Marek Stokowski, a writer rather overlooked by the critics.
Our catalogue is first of all an introductory presentation, which in a short form will bring the publishers closer to potentially interesting titles. It is a review showing the widest possible spectrum of Polish literary output. We have asked for recommendations from eminent experts: university professors, critics and journalists. Also, their texts, which are necessarily condensed but at the same time essential, can be found under each title.
Catalogue can be found here.
