I suppose what I'm trying to ask is: Is there any way an overseas writer, writing in English, can get published by big publishing houses in either US or UK - purely on the strength of the manuscript alone?
Will the publishers look past the physical boundaries separating the product and themselves? Or are there other factors to consider - i.e. an agent located locally, etc?
Assume that I don't want to approach publishers in my own country, because I do not believe they have the marketing or the reach. Also assume I'm not self-publishing.
Any comments?

p.s. No, I don't have a novel to sell. Just curious.
