Maresi and the Red Abbey Chronicles have been pre-empted in Spain and Norway this week! Starting this autumn with Maresi, the Red Abbey Chronicles will be published in Norwegian by Gursli Berg Forlag, followed by Naondel in spring 2018; Alfaguara/Penguin Random House will publish Maresi in 2018. The deals bring the total number of territories sold to 20, in addition to film rights, which were recently optioned to Film4.
Laia Zamarrón, editor at Alfaguara in Madrid was also full of praise for Maria and Maresi: “I find Maresi not only beautifully written, but also loved the main character and the world created around her and the monastery. I found it easily readable but also literary, and sometimes poetic. We are thrilled to be publishing Turtschaninoff in Spanish.”
Oslo-based publisher, Gunhild Gursli-Berg said, “Reading Maresi was a rare experience, I was mesmerised by the story, the feminist aspects, the strong characters and the exquisite language. I am so proud to publish The Red Abbey Chronicles in Norway.”
