From Our Authors
One day I was chatting about the vicissitudes of book publishing with an experienced literary agent. When Bellevue came up she said two things that have stayed with me: first, they are part of that small, elite group that is the most interesting sector of American publishing and, second, that Bellevue in particular truly cares about their authors. My collaboration with Erika Goldman started in the late 1990s, so neither comment was a surprise. Nonetheless, it was welcome affirmation of the esteem in which Erika and Bellevue are rightfully held.
