Our Authors

The List

Thirty-eight writers under contract. We publish fewer than twenty titles a year on purpose.

Essays & Criticism

Two-time Oakbend Prize finalist. Writes on landscape, memory and the archive. Three titles with us.

Literary Fiction

The Long Wire has been translated into eleven languages. His fourth novel is in copyedit.

Memoir

Former foreign correspondent in Beirut and Nairobi. Her third book ships this autumn.

History & Cartography

Cartographic historian, and the reason we bought a six-colour press for map plates.

Poetry

Salt in the Margins won the Coastline Award. Runs our summer poetry residency.

Craft & Journalism

Teaches audio narrative; his handbook is on the syllabus at forty-plus programmes.

Nature Writing

Field biologist turned essayist. Illustrates her own plates in gouache.

Crime Fiction

Four books, two of them optioned. Came to us after self-publishing his first pair.

We read unagented work. That is not a marketing line — roughly a third of the current list arrived through the open inbox.
