Alexander Korzhenevski Literary Agency offers professional services to proprietors, authors and artists
The First Literary Agency in Russia
Founded in the early 1990s as the very first literary agency in Russia, we have grown into a company with a truly international reach. Over the years, we have established enduring partnerships with many of the world’s largest publishing houses, who continue to entrust us with their most important titles and authors. Our reputation is built on professionalism, integrity, and results that speak for themselves.
We take pride in representing exceptional works that have found readers around the world — here are some of our notable titles.
Our Network
Today we are proud to represent the interests of over 100 esteemed proprietors, authors, and artists from every corner of the globe. Our diverse clientele includes renowned universities presses, such as Harvard, Duke, MIT, Columbia, California, North Carolina, Cambridge, Oxford, as well as publishing houses like Hachette Book Group, John Wiley & Sons, Taylor & Francis and many others.
Our core mission is to manage, expand, and facilitate content licensing across multiple languages. We bridge the gap between content creators and new markets, specializing in Russia and Eastern Europe. We have established deep connections and work closely with nearly every major publishing house throughout Russia and the CIS countries, ensuring our clients' work finds the widest possible audience.
Our business operations span 17 countries across North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia. Currently our agency is based in Russia, but we expect to open our New York office soon, which will allow us to establish even closer business relations with our major clients in the United States, develop new partnerships, and continue to increase our licensing capacities.
