Reykjavík Literary Agency is delighted to announce that Steindór Ívarsson, one of Iceland’s most popular authors, has joined the agency for rights representation.
Steindór writes across two registers with equal confidence: upmarket commercial fiction and crime. He has been nominated for the Icelandic Crime Fiction Award twice and for the Icelandic Audiobook Awards seven times. His books share a quality that is rare and valuable in international rights — they combine literary ambition with genuine, broad reader appeal. His existing fanbase in Iceland is one of the largest of any active Icelandic author, and his work has a strong capacity to travel.
RLA is very excited to be working with Steindór — an author with a strong track record, a devoted readership, and real quality on the page, exactly what we look for when we bring a new name to the international market.
