Think in Translation

It's only natural that different languages produce different cultures: the words we use affect the way we think and the way we live. That's why reading books in translation opens your mind, and it's one of the many reasons we've launched this project, which includes a podcast and blog posts exploring translation from a variety of angles. Commissioned by the Space and Creative Scotland.  


Three New Titles

In September, we released the three books we are publishing in 2022. Learn more with a blog from our publishing director on new Scottish poetry with The Last Woman Born on the Island, a debut novel set in 1970s Frankfurt with Giselle and Mr Memphis, and a translated Estonian classic – Indrek, volume II in the Truth and Justice pentalogy.
