Store Bits: ABC in the media

Tuesday, April 16th, 2013

A special Store Bits this week featuring ABC or ABC staff in other media the past months!

Our Reinoud was interviewed for English Breakfast Radio Amsterdam last month.  He talked about Dutch authors in translation like Arnon Grunberg and Herman Koch, and our Espresso Book Machine.

Speaking of Arnon Grunberg, check out this video about the launch of the English translation of Tirza (and a belated birthday celebration for Mr. Grunberg :-) )!  The video includes some reading aloud from the book and a few insights into the process of translating.

Can you spot ABC’s Luke, Rick, and Lynn?

Launch of the American edition of Arnon Grunberg’s novel Tirza from Arnon Grunberg on Vimeo.

A bit older but still interesting:  Rick’s 25th ABC anniversary was highlighted in Het Parool, Sophie gave some reading recommendations to The Hague Expat radio program DutchBuzz, ABC was featured on RTL 7’s Business Channel, and Lynn, Nadine and Paul were interviewed for the NRC series on family businesses (sadly only viewable if you have a subscription, though).
