The Land of Green Plums

Publication history

The Land of Green Plums is the second novel published by Müller since leaving Romania, after Der Fuchs war damals schon der Jäger (1992). It appeared in German in 1994, followed by the English translation in 1996. The hardback was published in the United States by Metropolitan Books in November 1996.[39] A Dutch translation was published in 1996.[25] Although French-language Swiss media had shown interest in the author, the novel had not been translated into French by 1998[40] After the IMPAC award, paperback editions of Hoffman's translation were published in the United Kingdom by Granta later that year[41][42] and again in September 1999 (with new cover art[43]). It was published in the United States by Northwestern University Press in November 1998. In November 2010, after Müller had won the Nobel Prize for Literature, a paperback was released in the United Kingdom and the United States by Picador.[44][45]
