Gothenburg Book Fair, the Swedish Arts Council and the Swedish Institute are launching a new partnership to disseminate conversations about Swedish literature to an international audience.

On 24-27 September the Gothenburg Book Fair was arranged in a digital format, due to covid-19. Approximately 150 studio talks were streamed through Bokmässan Play (Book Fair Play) a new online streaming service developed by the Gothenburg Book Fair that can be reached on the Swedish website.

A selection of 15 studio talks have been subtitled into English, Spanish, French, German and Arabic. The themes include a focus on current publishing trends in children’s and young adult literature, as well as fiction, non-fiction and crime fiction.

The Book Fair subtitled talks are available to view for free to everyone.
