  • Signed Modern Firsts I: Achebe–Kunzru
    Pryor-Johnson Rare Books Signed Modern Firsts I: Achebe-Kunzru [1123 Broadway, Suite 517, New York, NY 10075] [email protected] What an odd time to be an antiquarian bookseller. As the whole world strives to heal while convulsing with rage against injustice, issue points and binding variants can seem pitifully insignificant. We slip into the shop masked and gloved to wrap and dispatch books, but 1123 Broadway has not now for months been a haven of bibliophilia, with baroque music playing and a pot of coffee freshly brewed. Yet we hear from our clients and feel ourselves that cultivating bibliomania — even reading the books — has been a balm. Reading has been an escape as well as a means of rediscovering some of the humanity that’s been eroded by seclusion. Signed books have always had to do with imputed distance: the author’s signature in it is a marker of its having passed through her hands, sometime somewhere. As our own geographical remit has narrowed, a signed book now feels even more like a piece of moon fallen into our hands. We feel it is vital to amplify black, brown and native voices. Thus we highlight the following authors in this list: Achebe, Borges, Danticat, Erdrich, Fuentes, Garcia-Aguilera, Iweala and Kunzru. Their work travers- es style, subject and period. There is no one “literature of color,” nor do we wish to tokenize or fetishize these authors’ work. Bringing the work of people of color to the fore nevertheless feels like a small but powerful role the world of antiquarian books can play — a safeguard against our becoming truly irrelevant or frivolous.

  • One Book's Brand Is Another Book's Frame
    One Book’s Brand is Another Book’s Frame Covering the Dutch Cover of Carlos Ruiz Zafón’s La sombra del viento Maarten Steenmeijer Abstract Book covers can be an important part of the branding process in the case of authors from abroad. The branding of Carlos Ruiz Zafón’s novels in the Netherlands is a paradigmatic case in point. The front cover of his Dutch debut De schaduw van de wind became a classic: it is a crucial element of the Dutch Zafón brand, while essential features from it have been used to frame a considerable number of other Spanish authors’ novels that have since been launched onto the Dutch market. We examine three cases: Arturo Pérez-Reverte, Elia Barceló, and María Dueñas. Emulating successful cover branding seems to have the best chance of succeeding in the case of ‘new’ authors and appears to be most effective in the short term. Keywords: branding, translations, covers, hetero-representation Carlos Ruiz Zafón’s novel La sombra del viento is every publisher’s dream. Worldwide, it has sold more copies than any other Spanish novel, the only exception being, of course, Cervantes’ Don Quixote. Germany was the first foreign country where Ruiz Zafón’s novel was published (in the summer of 2003). Other countries soon followed and zafonmanía became a global phe- nomenon. To provide an idea of zafonmanía’s key features, it is relevant to cite the blurb from the US cover: ‘The number one bestseller.’ This is, evidently, Helleke van den Braber, Jeroen Dera, Jos Joosten, and Maarten Steenmeijer (eds), Branding Books Across the Ages: Strategies and Key Concepts in Literary Branding.

  • Losingsightliterature.Pdf (126.6Kb)
    Manno 1 Lindsey Manno Capstone Final Professor Cohen Losing Sight of Literature: The Commodity of Book Packaging In every young writer’s heart there is a dream, a dream that one day all of their hard work will lead to a successful, published novel. And not just any novel, but the next Great American novel that will be taught in classes for decades to come. Unfortunately, much of the publishing industry has another goal in mind when weeding through submissions and story ideas: making money and duplicating the success of Harry Potter or Twilight . In this paper, I plan to examine the workings of companies like Alloy Entertainment and James Frey’s Full Fathom Five Factory, each of which provide outlines and hire writers to put together novels for the Young Adult (YA hereafter) genre. By using a “novel by committee” format, these companies are weakening the publishing industry and making it that much more difficult for an up and coming writer to get their original work seen, much less published. They are doing away with what is considered to be the author and replacing it with brand names and product placement, changing the ideals of what it is to be a writer. In this essay, I will question whether or not these precooked ideas can still be considered art with any literary value, or if they’re simply commodities to companies consumed with the desire for money rather than the desire to share good books. First, though, it is important to determine what it is that allows something to be considered literature or to have literary value.

  • Transgender Books in Transgender Packages: the Peritextual Materials of Young Adult Fiction
    Vol. 1, No. 1 · 2020 · ISSN 2634-5277 DOI: 10.24877/ijyal.32 Distributed under CC BY 4.0 Transgender Books in Transgender Packages: The peritextual materials of young adult fiction Emily Corbett ABSTRACT The packaging of a book – its peritextual materials including front cover, blurb, acknowledgements, afterword, and author notes – provides information that can contribute to a potential reader’s decision whether or not to purchase, borrow, or read the story it encases. As such, the choices made by authors, illustrators, editors, and publishers regarding books’ peritextual features can offer important insights into the spaces books are intended to occupy within their contemporary market. This article examines the peritextual materials of a broad range of British and American transgender young adult novels published in the twenty-first century, in the context of the We Need Diverse Books movement and Time’s “transgender tipping point” which coincided in the mid-2010s. In doing so, it shows how the field of transgender young adult fiction has developed over the last five or so years to include more variety, intersectional diversity, and Own Voices authorship, as well as considering how the commercial packaging of various books might usefully signal the audience each is intended to attract. While a growing area of scholarship, existing research on transgender young adult novels has predominantly focused on the stories or their pedagogical function for teenage readers. Taking a different approach, this article asks how a selection of Emily Corbett is a PhD Candidate at the National Centre for Research in Children’s Literature, University of Roehampton.
