Around the world with Daisy Dooley
One of the fun things about selling foreign language rights in our own books and for the authors we represent is the excitement of seeing other publishers’ take on a familiar book cover. The latest foreign edition to arrive on the Essential Works doormat was the Lithuanian edition of Daisy Dooley Does Divorce, by Anna Pasternak.
Random House Ebury imprint Vermilion first published Daisy Dooley Does Divorce in the UK in 2007. Since then, as the covers below show, it’s attracted publishers around the world. After the UK hardback and paperback editions (first two covers, top row), came an American edition from 5 Spot (top row, third from left), a Dutch edition from H&W (top right), a German edition from Diana Verlag (bottom left and, second from left, as a club edition), a Czech edition from Baronet (bottom row, third from left) and, now, a Lithuanian edition from Alma Littera (bottom right).
