Hattie Grünewald has been shortlisted for the 2026 Literary Agent of the Year!

We are delighted to share that our very own agent Hattie Grünewald has been shortlisted for Literary Agent of the Year at the British Book Awards! Fingers crossed that Hattie brings it home!

Hattie Grünewald at The Blair Partnership has been the driving force behind the phenomenal success of Clare Leslie Hall’s Broken Country, turning a neglected mid-list writer into a bestseller and securing a film adaptation. There were plenty of deals across her very varied list, and her clients love her loyalty and work ethic. “She’s perceptive, dedicated, refreshingly honest and extraordinarily kind,” said one of them.
