US PANEL'S CHOICE

The US panel is formed by industry experts, which may include translators, agents, librarians, professors, authors, editors and publishers. Sometimes the panelists change, allowing more professionals to participate in this project. Our panel of experts meets twice a year for each edition, and their decisions are based on their knowledge of the market, the authors, and the books themselves, as well as their experience and also the readers’ reports commissioned by this office to readers selected beforehand. Members of the panel reach their decision with absolute independence.

The panel for the 2021 edition was formed by:

Chad Post, Director of Open Letter Books and Managing Editor of Three Percent.

Esther Allen, translator from Spanish and French, Associate Professor at Baruch College, City University of New York.

Javier Molea, Foreign Languages Manager at McNally Jackson Books in Soho, New York.

Marta Lopez-Luaces, Ph. D. in Spanish and Latin American Literatures from NYU and Associate Professor at Montclair SU.

Susan Harris, editorial director of Words Without Borders and coeditor of The Ecco Anthology of International Poetry.

We greatly appreciate their work in making this edition of New Spanish Books a huge success, in spite of this year and a half being a time where we all had to deal with face masks, quarantine and vaccination due to COVID-19.

Thank you!
