Random House Takes Cole’s ‘Tremor’
Teju Cole sold U.S. rights to his second novel, Tremor, to Caitlin McKenna at Random House. The publisher described the book as “a powerful, wide-ranging work of fiction that explores what constitutes a meaningful life in a violent world.” In addition to the novel Open City, Cole has written two essay collections and the experimental photobook Blind Spot. He is currently a contributing writer to the New York Times Magazine and a professor of creative writing at Harvard. He was represented by Andrew Wylie at the Wylie Agency.
