View Rights PortalBabel-Bridge specialises in translation rights representation world-wide on behalf of publishing houses and agencies. At Babel-Bridge, every single book is carefully selected for its potential ability to travel, be it for its universal theme, its commercial hook or stunning artwork, or indeed all three. Babel-Bridge represents mainly books from the Nordics and the UK, but we wish to grow the portfolio to include beautiful books that tick the aforementioned boxes from other corners of the world. To that end, Babel-Bridge will rely on close collaboration with subagents, who are strongly placed to identify the books that are most likely to travel, but where the rights holder lacks the network abroad.
View Rights PortalIn this collection of essays, twenty Ukrainian intellectuals reflect on the phenomenon of social bridges and walls. Why do they both exist? Do bridges always bring understanding? Or do they perhaps sometimes allow crossing boundaries? Do walls necessarily separate? Or do they occasionally protect? With whom and how should we build bridges, and from whom shall we isolate by walls? The result of the media project of the Ukrainian branch of the International PEN Club, published in the New Time publication, is now under one cover. On the pages of the book, you will find essays by the following authors: Kateryna Kalytko, Kateryna Botanova, Vakhtang Kebuladze, Zoya Kazanzhy, Ostap Slyvinskyi, Olena Stiazhkina, Larysa Denysenko, Myroslava Barchuk, Viktoriya Amelina, Vitaliy Ponomariov, Vasyl Makhno, Volodymyr Rafeenko, Mykola Riabchuk, Volodymyr Yermolenko, Svitlana Pyrkalo, Borys Gudziak, Ihor Isichenko, Halyna Vdovychenko, Pavlo Kazarin, Vitaliy Portnykov. Compiled by Tetiana Teren. Foreword by Andriy Kurkov.
The Bridge, authored by Yoel Tordjman, is a journey through the inner workings of the human mind from a Kabbalistic perspective, which heals its readers’ souls as they progress through its pages. Per the Torah, health begins in the mind. Each chapter of The Bridge addresses a different aspect of the human psyche that could potentially lead to disease. It then illustrates the keys to manifesting good health by creating bridges that connect all parts of the self into a coherent whole and to the main power source of the psyche. By addressing the most relevant questions of our times—such as how to deal with uncertainty, overcome chronic stress, increase vitality, experience peace, and live one’s best life—the book is an invaluable tool to achieve happiness and peace of mind. The Bridge is a collection of teachings by the author provided in response to people seeking his guidance. It was recorded by his son-in-law in writing, so that a wide audience of readers can have access to this essential knowledge. Yoel Tordjman is an artist, educator, and mystic. Born in Paris in 1960, he has lived in Israel since 1989, first in Jerusalem and then in the ancient holy city of Safed (Tzfat), the original center of Jewish mysticism—the renowned City of Kabbalah. He is joyfully married with lovable children and grandchildren. The author comes from a distinguished family of Jewish Torah scholars dedicated to community service. He has continued this legacy by serving as a community leader for forty-five years, during which time he has achieved far-reaching influence through his paintings and his unique voice. Among the eclectic body of work is a captivating collection of 613 mixed media paintings that convey the powerful vibrational messages of the 613 commandments (mitzvot)—a symbolic, magical number that corresponds to the organs of the human body. These paintings have a profoundly healing effect on those who meditate on them and share the spaces they occupy. Tordjman’s global vision is to exhibit all of his paintings across twelve international bridges, creating a spiritual art event that bridges the gap of humanity across every religion, race, and culture. An email English-language edition on has been scheduled for publication in Fall 2024. 320 pages , 15x 22.5 cm
This novel, a bestseller in Baghdad, starts with the first two American tanks that crossed over the Jumhuriya Bridge into the heart of Baghdad in 2003, as the narrator watches events unfold from her grandfather’s house at the riverfront. That’s when her emigration journey begins, setting her on a path to experience both love and death away from her country. After her mother passes away, her father resorts to quantum physics in an attempt to interpret the meaning of existence, while the nameless protagonist discovers the novels of Virginia Woolf, Charles Dickens, and Francoise Sagan. ///The author depicts how different generations of the same family live different worlds, separated by experiences and time despite occupying the same physical spaces. The Jumhuriya Bridge threads symbolism throughout the novel—ushering in the beginning of the military fall of the city and later being the setting of sporadic events, from innocent flirting, to gulls, down to the shocking event that pushes the story up to its climax.
