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. The premiere of the catalogue is in line with the industry calendar, as it coincides with the International Book Fair in Frankfurt, the most important event in the publishing industry in the world.
