The Eulama Literary Agency has sold the Brazilian rights in Zoran Zivkovic’s best-selling novel The Last Book to the São Paulo based Editora Octavo Ltda for publication in October 2010.

After the initial print-run of 10,000 copies of the Italian edition of The Last Book is nearly sold out in just over a month, it’s publisher, TEA, is about to reprint the book. The Last Book was on the bestseller list for three consecutive weeks in February and got numerous very favorable reviews in the Italian media.
