Internationally bestselling author Catharina Ingelman-Sundberg joins Nordin Agency!
It is our pleasure to welcome the internationally bestselling author Catharina Ingelman-Sundberg to Nordin Agency!
Catharina got her international breakthrough in 2012 with the first book in the humorous series about The League of Pensioners. The Little Old Lady Who Broke All the Rules hit the bestseller charts all over the world and spent a full year on the UK top chart. The author had previously published a number of successful, and accurate, historical fiction titles that are currently being re-released in Sweden.
We look forward to start working with Catharina’s books during the London Book Fair, both new and exciting projects as well as the fun-loving backlist titles and the suspenseful historical novels filled with Viking Saga’s and Medieval adventures.
Jessica Schiefauer winner of Stora Ljudbokspriset 2017!
Last night, Jessica Schiefauer was awarded Stora Ljudbokspriset 2017 for her amazing YA novel Pojkarna. The jury’s motivation in the YA category was as follows:
“The winner of this year’s Stora Ljudbokspris in the YA category goes to a book in which the author takes us listeners on a hike in a unique environment unlike any other. With a captivating language we’re taken into a world embedded in a dreamlike sheen with a dark undertone. The author has succeeded in writing a hybrid between fantasy and reality. There, the young characters goes against society’s conventions and allows listeners to reflect on stereotypical and gender-specific approaches.
The reading seems credible to us listeners, with an ear pleasing rhythm – perhaps because it is the author herself who is reading it to us.”
Stora Ljudbokspriset is arranged by Storytel and Synskadades Riksförbund.
