October is full of book fairs where we will showcase our latest publications, as well as selections from our backlist. We have been to Wiels Art Book Fair, Miss Read Berlin art book fair, and are now on our way to the Frankfurter Buchmesse and look forward to Offprint Paris and DRUK at Paradiso in Amsterdam.

It's here! We are excited to share the new 2024-2025 catalogue with you, filled with recent launches and offering a look into what publications are to come in the near future. The design and beautiful new cover image are by designer Montse Hernàndez i Sala.
