I know precisely the moment in Nathan Knapp’s Daybook that I became absolutely fascinated, & it was on p 23 when a woman’s (not the character’s new wife’s) “majestic” breasts are described. I know I know..but it really was a “what on earth is going on here?!” moment, & is vital to what follows. 5*!

Happy to be up and running on Bluesky! Can we just leave behind the woes of the old platform and get back to what we were doing? For us, that's literature outside the mainstream: publishing the best we can find and shouting about it when it's coming from elsewhere.

We're also looking for people who'd like to review the books we publish. Especially looking for those who'd like to review "Daybook" or "In the Suavity of the Rock". Interested? Just share your details with us and we'll be in touch: forms.gle/DXn7rH8ukaXs...

I'd like to create an "Authors of Small/Indie Press Books 2024-2025" starter pack. Is that you? If so, please reply here. Also, if you don't mind reposting this for visibility, I'd appreciate it! #writingcommunity #indiebooks #indieauthors #booksky

The second novel we published this year was Greg Gerke's "In the Suavity of the Rock", "a mesmerising exploration of how we depict memory through storytelling and how memory depicts us" (Christina Tudor-Sideri). In the UK you can get it for £11.99 plus postage, here: www.paypal.com/instantcomme...

Want a taste of "Suavity"? There's an excerpt at @minorlits.bsky.social (minorliteratures.com/2024/06/27/i...) as well as a Q&A with Greg: minorliteratures.com/2024/06/25/i.... And there's another excerpt at @clereviewbooks.bsky.social: www.clereviewofbooks.com/writing/greg...

We published two stunning novels earlier this year. First up was Nathan Knapp's "Daybook", "an absolutely one-of-a-kind book that held me rapt from the first word to the last" (Ben Loory). UK readers can get it with a couple of clicks, £10.99 plus postage, right here: www.paypal.com/instantcomme...
