books

We make BIG BREAKS happen.

We’re committed to celebrating and championing emerging authors and the distinctively fresh work they are uniquely capable of writing. We have enormous respect for the monastic, exhaustive, and slightly maniacal effort required to write a novel. It’s a true pleasure of our work to introduce compelling new voices to a larger audience.

New, since 1926.

Did we mention we've been doing this for quite some time? Since our founding in 1926, we've chosen many unknown books that later became iconic works of American fiction.
