What Seren is looking for
Seren is seeking powerful, moving literary fiction set in any part of the world, and is drawn to realist fiction that tackles moral, philosophical or political questions and intricate relationships. Seren is interested in novels that deal with intimacy, desire, love and loss, and in stories where memory and time shape the telling. In non-fiction, Seren is keen to find daring new voices, along with big-idea books that have a radical streak, and literary true crime.
Submissions
Seren asks writers to share an excerpt and a summary of their novel or proposal, together with a short biographical note. Authors can send work to only one agent at Lexington Literary, so a writer should pick a single agent from the agency. Contact details are on the agency's website.
