New York

Susanna Lea Associates opened its New York office in 2004.

We are always on the lookout for new voices and good stories. We represent a range of fiction and non-fiction, including literary and commercial fiction, women’s fiction, crime, thrillers, narrative non-fiction, memoir, current affairs, personal development, humor, and select young adult with crossover appeal. We work extensively with our clients throughout the publishing process to ensure close follow-through on all projects, and have a strong focus on all rights including translation, film, television, and audio.

Along with the SLA list, the New York office also sells North American rights on behalf of London-based agency Toby Mundy Associates.

Some of SLA New York’s recent and notable projects include international bestsellers The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning by Margareta Magnusson, How to Be Parisian Wherever You Are by Anne Berest, Audrey Diwan, Caroline de Maigret, and Sophie Mas, Mr. Peanut by Adam Ross, Infidel by Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Anticancer by David Servan-Schreiber, Even Silence Has an End by Ingrid Betancourt and P.S. from Paris and Last of the Stanfields by Marc Levy. Collusion by Luke Harding (on behalf of David Godwin Associates) was a #1 New York Times bestseller.
