In more great news, three Cooke International titles are celebrated on NPR's Best Books of 2017 list! Congratulations to Scaachi Koul for ONE DAY WE'LL ALL BE DEAD AND NONE OF THIS WILL MATTER (Doubleday Canada), Sofia Samatar for TENDER, and Kij Johnson for THE RIVER BANK! 

The Charles Taylor foundation has revealed the longlist for the 2018 RBC Taylor Prize, which celebrates excellence in literary non-fiction. We are thrilled to find three Cooke International titles on the list: Mohamed Fahmy's THE MARRIOTT CELL (Random House Canada), Michael Harris's SOLITUDE (Doubleday Canada), and James Maskalyk's LIFE ON THE GROUND FLOOR (Doubleday Canada). 

Globe & Mail's 100 Best Books of the Year list is out, featuring TEN Cooke International titles from several of our clients. The selection covers a wide variety of genres and topics, from literary fiction, poetry, non-fiction, and more! 

Praise and acclaim continue to come Brother's way: the novel has won the 2017 Rogers Writers’ Trust Fiction Prize. The prize carries with it a $50,000 award and is a great honour. Earlier this summer, Brother was sold in a two-book deal in a heated 5-way auction to Bloomsbury US & UK who will be publishing early in 2018.

Globe & Mail’s Most Anticipated Books list for the second half of the year was released last week,
highlighting 30 books by Canadian authors coming out before the end of the year. The list featured several Cooke International clients!
