He has worked as a television presenter and screenwriter for Televisi\u00f3n de Galicia and currently collaborates with media outlets such as <i>Diario de Pontevedra<\/i>, <i>ABC<\/i>, <i>El Mundo<\/i>, Cadena SER, and <i>GQ Espa\u00f1a<\/i>.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span lang=\"EN-US\">Considered an international bestseller, his works have been translated into more than 15 languages. Alongside Javier Sierra and Carlos Ruiz Zaf\u00f3n, he is one of the few contemporary Spanish authors to reach the top sales charts in the United States, surpassing 200,000 copies sold in that market. He was also the first Spanish author to rank among the top three bestselling books in the U.S. based solely on preorders of his novel <i>The Last Passenger<\/i>. In 2014, he became the only non\u2013English-language author included on the list of the 100 bestselling authors in the United States.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span lang=\"EN-US\">His literary debut, <i>Apocalypse Z<\/i>, began as a viral blog that attracted more than one and a half million readers. After its publication in print, it became an international publishing success. The saga was adapted for film by Prime Video, and a sequel is currently in development. Many of his other works are also in the process of audiovisual adaptation.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span lang=\"EN-US\">What the press says:<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span lang=\"EN-US\">\u201cAt first I thought that a man from Kansas wouldn\u2019t be interested in the adventures of a guy on the Camino de Santiago. But in the end those stories work, because what matters is not where or when things happen, but how they happen and who they happen to,\u201d Loureiro says. \u201cAnd he certainly achieves that, since he is one of the few contemporary Spanish authors who has managed to place his books on the U.S. bestseller lists, a difficult market for non\u2013English-language writers.\u201d \u2014 <i>La Vanguardia<\/i><\/span>\r\n\r\n<span lang=\"EN-US\">\u201cExactly a decade ago, he began typing the first lines of a blog that, in a very short time, would become a worldwide phenomenon.\u201d \u2014 <i>La Voz de Galicia<\/i><\/span>\r\n\r\n<span lang=\"EN-US\">\u201cManel Loureiro seems to have a gift for timing, as many of the themes in his novels are closely connected to current events.\u201d \u2014 <i>La Vanguardia<\/i><\/span>\r\n\r\n<span lang=\"EN-US\">\u201cIn recent years, the Camino has been portrayed in fiction in many ways and formats\u2014even Amazon Prime has a series\u2014but \u2018as far as I know, no one has done a thriller\u2019 inspired by it. Loureiro says this with some surprise, because he believes it has all the elements needed to build a first-rate suspense story around it.\u201d \u2014 <i>ABC<\/i><\/span>\r\n\r\n<span lang=\"EN-US\">\u201cAn author who is beginning to be compared to Jules Verne for anticipating some of the key aspects of the coronavirus pandemic.\u201d \u2014 <i>La Voz de Galicia<\/i><\/span>\r\n\r\n<span lang=\"EN-US\">\u201cManel Loureiro is one of the few contemporary Spanish authors who has managed to place his books on the U.S. bestseller lists.\u201d \u2014 <i>Europa Press<\/i><\/span>","_thumbnail_id":1547,"autor__galeria_archivos":"","idauthor":""},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Manel Loureiro - Scenic\u00a0Rights<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.scenicrights.com\/en\/author\/manel-loureiro\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Manel Loureiro - Scenic\u00a0Rights\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Scenic Rights is the audiovisual co-agency of Antonia Kerrigan literary agency. &nbsp; Manel Loureiro es un escritor, periodista y abogado espa&ntilde;ol.
