WHO WE ARE:
AFA Literary Agent is an agency specializing in the commercialization of copyrights for books previously published in the Portuguese language in Brazil. Our portfolio focuses on works designated in Brazil as "Spiritualistic Novels”. The books we represent focus on themes such as reincarnation, spirit guides, psychic abilities, energy work, communication with spirits and other areas of spiritual development. These books have found an enthusiastic audience in Brazil, and we believe that there is an excellent potential market in other languages and countries. All books are critically reviewed and evaluated and represent Christian concepts such as love, forgiveness, crime and punishment, and the presence of Divine Providence in the cycles of reincarnation.
Modern readers are eager for content in the genre of self-help or spiritualism and these works present answers to many of the present questions of society, such as reincarnation, life after death, and the continuity of individual consciousness before and after incarnation. Written without mysticism, dogmatism, and in simple, direct and objective language, this accessible literature is in the style of historical novels set in different times and countries.
