The publication of the Swiss List in partnership with Seagull Books is an effort to bring Swiss literature to readers around the world. An extension of the initiative "Moving Words", the Swiss List has had demonstrable impact.

The number of translations of Swiss literature will continue to increase, with Seagull Books looking at publishing another few titles by year end.
