Hyperion OOD is a recently created literary agency located in Sofia/Bulgaria. We intend to support our clients (publishers, authors, other agencies) in identifying potential partners and helping them to sell or acquire translation or other subsidiary intellectual property rights. We work globally, with a particular focus on South Eastern Europe, the Middle East, and South East Asia. We are looking

for a long term co-operation with publishers, authors, and other literary agents - preferably on the basis of an agreement of exclusivity (globally or for certain regions). If you are a publisher: we will be glad to represent your foreign rights in specific target markets. If you are an author: we will assist you in embarking on new projects and markets and deal with those aspects of the book business that distract you from focusing exclusively on your writing. If you are a literary agency: we are particularly strong in South East Europe, the Middle East and Indonesia, due to our network of personal contacts with publishers and institutions in this region. We will be glad to represent your titles/authors for you in that region as a sub-agent.

It is already a tradition at the Global Literature in Libraries Initiative to organize a series of “Literature Months” devoted to the national literatures of countries and languages from all over t…

It is impossible not to love its winding, cobbled streets and wafts of rosewater f...
