Swedish Translators Recommend: Titles That Belong on Swedish Shelves

Swedish literary translators are uniquely positioned to spot Dutch-language books with strong potential in Sweden. They move effortlessly between both literary worlds, staying in close contact with Swedish editors while following new voices and trends across Flanders and the Netherlands. Their perspective is both practical and finely tuned: they know what resonates, what stands out, and which stories deserve a place on Swedish shelves. That’s why we asked four Swedish translators to each select two titles they believe would be an excellent fit for the Swedish market.
