The Wales Literature Exchange 2014-2015 Bookcase will be promoted at the Abu Dhabi International Book Fair held between 7-13 May, 2015.

Our sister organisation, Literature Across Frontiers will be at the International Book Fair again this year, facilitating literary exchange and translation between Europe and the Arab world.

Once again, Literature Across Frontiers will be promoting literature from Wales, in particular the titles selected to the Wales Literature Exchange 2014 - 2015 Bookcase, selected annually as a window to recent Welsh literary works which we recommend for translation. Our translation grants, open to foreign publishers for the translation of literature from Wales, will also be promoted at the Fair.

Alexandra Büchler, director of Literature Across Frontiers, and Elin Haf Gruffydd Jones, Director of the Mercator Institute, where Wales Literature Exchange is based, will be speaking at a number of events held through the Professional and Cultural Programme at the Fair.
