In some parts of the globe, agenting can be not just a dealing but a healing art!

Founded in Istanbul, Turkey in 2005, Kalem Literary Agency represents more than fifty renowned Turkish authors and many literary agencies and foreign publishers in the Turkish market.

As a young and dynamic literary agency, we are in search of emerging voices and persevere to support and nurture their talent as they develop their writing careers. We are proud, too, of having worked with some of the most prominent and established contemporary Turkish authors. Our focus is on fiction that ranges from high-quality literary works to commercial titles with mass-market appeal.
