Welcome to Jacaranda Agency
Jacaranda is a boutique literary agency working out of Singapore, India, and the UK. We represent a diverse list of fiction and nonfiction from across Asia, and in particular a growing list of fiction from South East Asia. Our list includes authors from Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and Taiwan. We also represent many authors from further afield, including from the US, UK, Kenya, and Australia, making us a truly international agency. More recently we have begun building a small, curated list of fiction in translation from South East Asia. We also represent a small number of translators.
