LAUNCH OF RUSSIAN FOCUS 2012-2014 AT LITRIX.DE
Moscow and Saint Petersburg
In early April, Litrix.de launched its new focus with events that drew large crowds in Moscow and St. Petersburg. In the years 2012 until 2014, Litrix will promote translations into Russian of approximately 40 books. The opening ceremonies, which took place at the literary café Mart in Moscow, and at the Goethe- Institut library in St. Petersburg, were attended by large numbers of representatives from the Russian publishing world, translators, and journalists. After a brief and informal presentation of the Litrix website and affiliated translation program, the Russian Litrix jury introduced the 15 books selected for the current Litrix program. The Russian audience showed a keen interest in both the individual titles selected by Litrix and in the translation program. We are pleased to announce that the first Litrix books to be translated have already found Russian publishers.
