AWP 2025 is almost here! In just a few short weeks, we’ll be in beautiful Los Angeles, in the scenic Back Row of the LA Convention Center! Here’s a thread of what Deep Vellum, Dalkey Archive, and Open Letter have in store:

Everyone knows I owe Chad Post everything & teaming up on @openletterbooks.bsky.social & @dalkeyarchive.bsky.social brings his vision into a publishing house centered on international literature & to connect these books with readers who, like me, are starving for that elusive something MORE

Great news for world lit!

Hello! Good morning to literature-lovers worldwide! We are thrilled to announce that we have partnered with the University of Rochester, and we welcome @openletterbooks.bsky.social as the newest member of the Deep Vellum family. www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/...

Over the years, we have seen the sorts of non-book merchandise packages that sometimes get sent out alongside advance copies of books. We thought we would try it for ourselves.

Looking forward to AWP next month!

How thrilled are we to see SOLENOID on @thebookerprizes.bsky.social longlist? Well we’re positively levitating, of course thebookerprizes.com/the-booker-l...

"The real crime, Boullosa seems to argue, is not the mere act of stealing, but how theft becomes enshrined into law and then retroactively justified." Read @rachelmonroe.bsky.social on @carmenboullosa.bsky.social's TEXAS: THE GREAT THEFT (@deepvellum.bsky.social): www.bookforum.com/print/3103/t...

I interviewed translators, publishers, and tech experts on AI's impact on literary translation for @pw.org, and what we stand to lose of the 'human and humane' in the literary process: www.pw.org/content/ai_t..., featuring @deepvellum.bsky.social, @societyofauthors.bsky.social & others!

Congratulations to our nominees for the 2025 Best Literary Translations Anthology: Will Pewitt, Sharon Dolin, Susan K, Siavash Saadlou, Ali Asadollahi, Melisa Cahnmann-Taylor, and Kuo Zhang. Thanks to Deep Vellum @deepvellum.bsky.social for this opportunity to celebrate works in translation!

The beginning should read “Now it’s happening.” Thus did it begin.

@bookforum.bsky.social, RACHEL MONROE: Carmen Boullosa’s Texas: The Great Theft: 10th Anniversary Edition, @deepvellum.bsky.social, thankful for this terrific review

Hello

On the road again We just can't wait to get on the road again The life I love is discussing literature with our friends And we can't wait to get on the road again (we just made that up) DEEP VELLUM ON TOUR THIS SPRING:

The winner is Eve Hill-Agnus' translation of Ultramarine by Mariette Navarro. Coming from @deepvellum.bsky.social This is an award that specifically funds a translation, the book is coming in March and it looks extremely up my alley as a sea-themed spooky SFF novel.

To keep up with industry trends, all 2025 Deep Vellum titles will now feature SPRAYED EDGES in an absolutely gorgeous custom color that we call “paper” 🥰😍

The always brilliant Sophia Terazawa—author of ANON, WINTER PHOENIX, and the showstopping TETRA NOVA—was in @literaryhub.bsky.social to discuss language, family history, and "writing in a traitor tongue" lithub.com/sophia-teraz...

SCHATTENFROH A Requiem August, 2025
