In The Bookseller Anna James reports that Visser of De Geus launches English language publisher -- which is to be called World Editions.
(The current World Editions site doesn't quite capture the English-language-publication version that's coming.)
They kindly sent me ARCs of their forthcoming (in early 2015) first four volumes and it's a promising start. The most notable title is Linda Boström Knausgård's The Helios Disaster (see, for example, the review in the Swedish Book Review) -- yes, she is the wife of that struggling Norwegian author .....
I'm very excited to see their ambitious program (twenty titles in 2015 !) -- and am very pleased that they are already working towards translating 25 Dutch and Flemish authors in time for the 2016 Frankfurt Book Fair (when the Netherlands and Flanders are guests of honour at the book fair).
