For 2017, the imprint plans to add books from Piper Verlag in Germany, as well as books from Bonnier Books publishers in Finland and Poland.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In fiction, especially popular fiction, it&#8217;s not easy to find an Anglo-Saxon publisher willing to invest in the translation &#8211; only 3 percent of books in English are translations. Even if the book had been a tremendous success in the German-speaking countries, its qualities being hailed by readers, rights sold to other countries,&#8221; says Ulrike Stenglin, who works with the initiative from the Ullstein side.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In the last few years however, we have seen popular fiction translated from German gain momentum in an international market: Oliver P\u00f6tzsch, whose books no traditional U.S. publisher wanted to translate, sold over a million copies via Amazon; Petra Durst-Benning, Corinna Bomann and Nele Neuhaus all sell well internationally. At Manilla we believe here are no boundaries to a good story.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>As for the name Manilla, Stenglin explains that it comes from the Bonnier family mansion in Stockholm, which is called Nedre Manilla. &#8220;Its eventful international story represents the idea of our joint venture!&#8221; she says.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a new cross-border joint venture, Bonnier Books is bringing some of the top authors of its non-English publishers to an English-speaking public with Manilla, a new imprint that is a join venture of Bonnier Zaffre in the U.K. and Ullstein in Germany.
