Dear Readers,
By combining Crowdsourcing with a traditional Slush pile, we created CrowdSlush. Think of it like community or reader pitches for books we should consider publishing.
Every household likely has a book that did not cross the proverbial ocean of translation.
Maybe it’s a dog-eared novella sitting in an old suitcase, a book your grandparents often mentioned, or a collection of stories that you wished you could read in English, or one that is simply out of print.
We want our readers to participate in shaping our book catalog. If there is a work in your native tongue that you have searched for in English, or wish your friends could finally read, put it on our radar.
We read every reader’s recommendation and investigate translation rights, locate estate contacts, and scout titles actively. If your book suggestion leads to a published translation, we will give you a formal shoutout in the book.
Much obliged,
Team Soda Buddhi Books
