We’ve moved! After eight wonderful years in Boston / Harvard Square, we’ve moved back to my home state of New York, settling in the stunning and ever interesting Hudson Valley. Our new address is listed below.

A small, selective agency, Fairbank Literary Representation is entering its ninth year. Clients range from first-time authors to international best-sellers, prize winning-journalists to professionals at the top of their fields. Our tastes tend toward literary and international fiction, mysteries/thrillers with a firm sense of place, memoir that goes beyond the me-moir, and topical or narrative non-fiction, with a strong interest in women’s voices and class and race issues, quality lifestyle books (food, wine, and design), pop culture, craft, and gift and humor books. We are most likely to pick up works that are of significance, newsworthy, or works that speak to the human condition and the search for a greater truth. Lately we have been doing extremely well in the humor/gift/pop culture category, and we’d love to take on more projects in those categories. We do have a strong sense of humor!! Make me laugh, and you’re ahead of at least 80% of what I see.
