Swedish Book Review

Since 1983 SELTA has published Swedish Book Review to present Swedish literature to the English-speaking world.

Swedish Book Review (SBR) relaunched as an online publication in 2020 and can be read on its new website.

Swedish Book Review

SELTA members write articles, translate extracts of Swedish works, introduce Swedish writers and review recent Swedish titles for SBR. As well as publicising Swedish literature to the wider world, SBR is also a valuable channel for the SELTA community in raising our profile both individually and collectively. Having a piece published in SBR has proved a useful way into professional literary translation for many of SELTA’s associate members.

SBR’s coverage ranges well beyond popular genre fiction to include literary fiction, non-fiction, poetry, drama and novels for young adults. Its seasoned pool of reviewers is a reliable resource for all those seeking information about new books from Sweden.
