The project READERS EXCHANGE (REX) by Treći Trg aims to increase the diversity of European literature and enhance transnational circulation of literary works, by carefully selecting literary works from authors based throughout the European continent and providing readers with a perspective of Europe different from the one they are accustomed to. In total, ten literary works, covering eight European countries and eight different languages will be translated, published and promoted.
Seven novels and one collection of short stories, written in lesser-used languages, by high profile, award-winning European authors that will be translated to Serbian language, published, and promoted in Serbia, thus introducing high quality works of literature from six different countries, to the domestic book market.
Two poetry collections written by young locally awarded domestic authors will be translated to German language, and published bilingually, in both the German speaking markets and domestic Serbian/Montenegrin markets, giving young authors a chance to have their voices heard beyond their national borders.
Project objectives will contribute to diversification of European literature in Serbia, Montenegro, Germany, and Austria by including works written in lesser-used languages.
