Book display / List Help - International Crime Fiction/ Crime Fiction in Translation
Crime fiction is very popular but lists and displays often have the same best selling authors on them. You could likely name 5-10 of those authors easily if asked. One way to dig into your backlist and help patrons find series and authors new to them is to look at crime fiction in translation or international crime fiction. The Petrona Award -Awarded to the Best Scandinavian Crime Novel of the Year The award is open to crime fiction in translation, either written by a Scandinavian author or set in Scandinavia and published in the UK in the previous calendar year. Dagger for Crime Fiction in Translation - The Crime Writers' Association Dagger Award This award is for crime novels (defined by the broadest definition to include thrillers, suspense novels and spy fiction) as long as the book was not originally written in English and has been translated into English for UK publication during the judging period.
