Via the Bookseller (7 September 2007 issue, p13), Christopher MacLehose has announced the first titles in his new imprint, MacLehose Press, backed by Quercus (see Euro Crime: From Harvill to Quercus for last year's news of the partnership).
The news seems good, as MacLehose will focus on translated fiction. Stig Larsson's Millennium Trilogy (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo for January 08, then by The Girl Who Played with Fire later in the year -- with the third to follow, presumably) will be translated from the Swedish. Also to be published in English language will be Polish author Marek Krajewski's Breslau quartet: the first title, Death in Breslau, also to be published in January.
Here is a link to the Quercus section of the Bookseller's website, but you'll need a subscription to read the articles. I couldn't find a website for MacLehose press, but here is a bit about the man at the London Book Fair website.
