Nonfiction from Flanders 2012
As usual, at the Frankfurt Book Fair the FLF will be presenting foreign relations with the literary harvest of the past year for all genres, in the form of information sheets and sample translations. This year, the Frankfurt Book Fair is also where we will be developing further a nonfiction pilot project. That project, which started at the Beijing Book Fair in 2011, is aimed primarily at exploring the options for the FLF's nonfiction policy and, after thorough evaluation, how to integrate that policy into the existing foreign rights marketing activities.

Look at Literature from Flanders - Beijing 2011
The Flemish Literature Fund (FLF) can look back with satisfaction at its first visit to Beijing. From August 31 to September 4, 2011, for the first time, the FLF presented literature from Flanders to Chinese publishers at the International Book Fair in Beijing. The FLF was following in the wake of the Netherlands, which was guest country at the fair.
The FLF's aim was to gain insight into the Chinese book market and visit the relevant publishing houses willing to consider translations. It also wanted to find out what Chinese readers would be interested in, in terms of both genre and theme. Three members of FLF staff discussed such issues with sixty-five Chinese publishers at the fair and presented them with a bi-lingual English/Chinese brochure featuring thirty-six titles.
Book - Colouring Outside the Lines
'Colouring Outside the Lines' tells the story of 22 illustrators whose skill and creativity have enriched and expanded the world of children's literature.
Their illustrations open up the texts with power and sincerity. Each in their own way, these illustrators also colour outside the lines of the story, using a dash of humour, an anecdote or a surprising picture.
These are Flemish illustrators who are looking for a visual language that appeals to both adults and children.
'Colouring Outside the Lines' investigates the development of each illustrator's work and shows how to read their illustrations. Every shape, every colour and every line has a meaning. The better you are at deciphering that meaning, the richer the story becomes and the more pleasure you find in reading it.
