Description
15 Minute One-On-One Session with literary agent Iwalani Kim
Iwalani Kim joined Sanford J. Greenburger Associates in 2018. She represents a range of adult upmarket and literary fiction and select nonfiction. Her clients include writers like Megan Kamalei Kakimoto, Naomi Xu Elegant, Reena Shah, Alice Evelyn Yang, Hasan Dudar, Alexia Nader, and Elena Dudum.
In fiction, she loves coming-of-age narratives, family dramas, and stories that challenge systems of power. She is often drawn to a strong sense of voice and/or place, whether the storytelling is grounded in realism or engages with a speculative element. She gravitates toward lush prose, wry humor, irreverent characters, and a sense of yearning. Iwalani is also looking for narrative nonfiction such as memoir, cultural histories, and cultural criticism. She would love to work with writers who are engaging with history, design, architecture, sociology, and anthropology, especially from a leftist angle. She is passionate about championing the work of underrepresented authors and would especially love to work with Pacific Islander writers.
