Anagrama is a Spanish publisher founded in 1969 by Jorge Herralde, later sold to the Italian publisher Feltrinelli.

History

Anagrama was founded in 1969 by Jorge Herralde. In 2010, it was sold to the Italian publisher Feltrinelli.[1][2]

A Catalan language series, Llibres anagrama, was created in 2014.

In January 2017 the publisher was acquired by the Feltrinelli Group, with Jorge Herralde appointed chairman of the board, while and Silvia Sesé took over as editorial director of Anagrama.

In November 2021, La Bella Varsovia, a poetry publisher headed by poet Elena Medel, became an imprint of Anagrama, with Medel continuing as director.[3]

Anagrama has published thousands of titles since 1969.[citation needed]

Description

Anagrama publishes around 100 books annually,[when?] including fiction, non-fiction, and a paperback series.[citation needed]

Its most important series is Narrativas hispánicas, consisting of works by many of the most important Spanish-language writers of the modern era, including Sergio Pitol, Enrique Vila-Matas, Roberto Bolaño, Álvaro Enrigue, Ricardo Piglia, Javier Tomeo, Álvaro Pombo, among others. It also publishes Panorama de narrativas, which consists of prominent works translated from other languages, and Argumentos, or essays by all types of thinkers, philosophers, and contemporary writers.[citation needed]

Around 75 per cent of its sales are made in Spain.[4] The publisher and its translators have been criticized by Latin American readers for the overuse of typically Castilian Spanish expressions,[5][6][7][8]

Awards

Anagrama awards two annual prizes to unpublished works: the Anagrama Essay Prize and the Herralde Novel Prize.[citation needed]

In 2016, the Llibres Anagrama Prize was awarded for the first time, for original fiction written in the Catalan language.[citation needed]
