Danielle Bukowski, Agent

Danielle represents critically acclaimed, award-winning fiction and nonfiction. She is particularly looking for narratives from writers traditionally excluded from the publishing industry. For fiction, she likes books that balance plot with voice, have a strong sense of place, a unique hook, and are stylistically bold; for nonfiction, she’s looking for work grounded in the author’s personal interest, rigorously reported and researched, and will expand the reader’s view of the world. Recent and forthcoming books include Palaver by Bryan Washington (Finalist for the National Book Award), Liquid: A Love Story by Mariam Rahmani (Finalist for the Center for Fiction First Novel Prize), Alligator Tears: A Memoir-in-Essays by Edgar Gomez, I Leave it Up to You by Jinwoo Chong, and Obstetrix by Hugo, Lodestar and Nebula-award winning Naomi Kritzer.
