On the English website, foreign publishers, translators, book professionals and readers will find selected profiles of �������� authors and their works, a database of books that were published abroad with the support of the grant program �������� as well as news about events related to �������� literature happening in the world.  

The cancellation of all relevant international book fairs where new books are promoted and contracts are signed has sped up the construction of the website. Although it is only a small compensation for the personal meetings with professionals from around the world that we are missing this year, we believe the site will prove to be a helpful navigator through contemporary literary events. 

For the literary professional, the site offers a variety of information. There are reviews of �������� books published in translation, information about grants and residencies for translators and authors, catalogues of �������� books as well as a database of both �������� and foreign publishers, lectorates of �������� language, �������� Institutes abroad, translation houses, bookstores and printers. 

However, Books from ��������ia does not only target professionals. For a broader group of ��������-literature enthusiasts, there are interviews with �������� authors translated into English, articles about how �������� literature is presented at international book fairs and festivals, and information about authors' readings and other literary events abroad. 

The site also features unique podcasts about �������� literature recorded in English and in German: LIT_CAST ��������ia and LIT_CAST Slowakei. The hosts of these podcasts, Julia Sherwood and Michal Hvorecký, invite interesting guests - mostly translators of �������� literature ���Ի���foreign publishers and experts on �������� literature - for an interview in their virtual studio.
