Fern Books is a small press unhurriedly dedicated to forms of writing, and ideas about publishing, that are thoughtful and generous and expansive. We’re interested in literary risk-taking, adventures in form and content and authorship, and the connections and relationships fostered between books and their readers. We aim to think out loud, as it were, about whose imaginations literary text can stir, what makes text literary in the first place, and what shapes besides bound printed matter it might take. As we work on answering these questions, we plan to publish books—among other things—that we believe make the world a more enchanting, welcoming, and sane place. Got a tip for us? Let us know.
