MacLehose Press signs C.K.Stead and Murray Bail


Quercus Books imprint MacLehose Press has acquired two new titles by Australasian authors C K Stead and Murray Bail. Both authors were previously published by Harvill Press.
Publisher Christopher MacLehose acquired world rights including ANZ to novel Risk by New Zealand author Stead (left), with plans to publish in October 2012 with a view to coinciding with this year's Frankfurt Book Fair NZ focus. MacLehose did the deal directly with Stead.

MacLehose also acquired world rights, excluding ANZ, directly from Australian author, critic and art historian Murray Bail (right), to his new novel The Voyage.
MacLehose said: "It is a privilege, no less, for us to have the chance to publish and to sell all over the world the work of these two outstanding writers."
