International Releases of ‘Brightly Shining’

Multiple international editions of Ingvild H. Rishøi’s acclaimed Brightly Shining have recently been published: Catalan (on November 28th), Serbia (on December 28th), Korea (in December), in Arabic (in November) and Croatia (in October).

Brightly Shining is a tale about a father who does his best but not enough, about a sister who tries to fill his shoes, and a daughter who never stops hoping. It is about the reality of addiction but also the power of dreams and believing in the kindness of strangers. With an unfaltering loyalty to the child’s perspective, Norwegian cult writer Ingvild H. Rishøi gives us the world through the eyes of her unforgettable young protagonist Ronja: naïve yet pragmatic, hopeful yet dark.

The Catalan edition was published by Amsterdam, the Serbian edition was published by Imprimatur, the Korean edition was published by Dasan Books, the Arabic edition was published by Hayat Publishing and the Croatian edition was published by Neolit.
