The Riveter is a free magazine devoted to riveting European literature in English. The idea is to make international writing popular and accessible to readers everywhere and to celebrate excellent translation and great books from the rest of Europe.
The Riveter was launched in 2017 by the European Literature Network. Professionally edited and published by a small dedicated team, it attracts support from a wide range of publishers, authors, translators, critics, academics – and readers. It has achieved acclaim with its special issues on Polish, Russian, Nordic, Baltic, Swiss, Queer, German, Romanian, Dutch, Italian, Austrian and Spanish literature in English.
The magazine is distributed free to bookshops, libraries, colleges and other organisations, and at events across the UK and Europe. It is also available to order from newsstand.co.uk (Romanian, Dutch, Italian, Austrian and Spanish) and all editions are free to download in their digital form from the European Literature Network website.
You can find books featured in The Riveters on ELNet’s page on bookshop.org.
