Penguin in "Conversation" with Andrew Wylie Over Odyssey Titles

theBookseller.com: "Penguin has confirmed that it is negotiating with agent Andrew Wylie over books that have been included in the agent's digital offshoot Odyssey Editions over which Penguin has print rights. The news follows the truce declared between Random House and Wylie, with reports suggesting that a deal was struck after the adoption of a new royalty rate based on a sliding scale. ... Penguin refused to elaborate on its discussions with Wylie, but has two books—Saul Bellow's Adventures of Augie March and William Burroughs' Junky—for which it holds global rights in print, and one further title Brideshead Revisited, where it has UK and Commonwealth rights. A statement from the publisher read: 'Penguin Group has had conversations with Andrew Wylie regarding the books in the Odyssey Editions program and those conversations are ongoing.'"
