If the world changes, we must change with it. And I know we’ve taken a significant step forward. “We must admit that luck was always on our side and it still is. “We’ll bolster it as much as we can so that together with our existing Rosa dels Vents imprint, it helps Penguin Random House Grupo Editorial increase its presence in the Catalan-language market.”Īnd Martí is quoted saying, ” Who would have said, dear Josep María, when we started back in 1986, at a time when so few of us were involved in Catalan-language publishing, that a group with its headquarters in the United States and Germany would take an interest in a Catalan-language imprint like ours? We’ll be providing this imprint with all the support it may need to reach as many readers as possible across all the different formats.
