Congratulations to Andrew Krivak, recipient of the University of Scranton’s Royden B. Davis, S.J., Distinguished Author Award “for his luminous contributions to American letters and his enduring witness to the immigrant and working-class heritage of Northeastern Pennsylvania.”
Paul Harding had trouble finding a home for his debut novel, Tinkers. He signed with Bellevue Literary Press, a small publisher. . . . Then it won the 2010 Pulitzer Prize . . . These stories hearten struggling writers and everyone else who struggles too . . . These stories, finally, tell us that a healthy book industry is a diverse one . . . The more gatekeepers, the better.
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.
