An independent publishing house bringing readers the foreign and French voices that public debate would do well to hear.
First titles coming Fall 2026.
What We Believe
French public debate needs to listen before it speaks.
We will begin by publishing foreign voices — American, English, German, Italian, Scandinavian — that France translates too late, or not at all. Not out of deference, but because certain ideas mature elsewhere before they reach us, and ignoring them is a mistake.
A life told with precision is worth a thousand op-eds.
We will publish the life stories of entrepreneurs, leaders, researchers, and witnesses when they shed light on a contemporary transformation. Not success stories. Not self-serving memoirs. Trajectories that teach readers something about their own times.
Editorial slowness is a standard, not a nostalgia.
We will publish little — six to ten titles a year — and we will stand behind every choice. A rejected manuscript is one that doesn't match our editorial line. We would rather decline clearly than keep an author waiting.
What We're Working On
We are currently working to acquire the French rights to several contemporary essays and narratives published abroad, in the fields of economic transformation, leadership, technological change, and remarkable individual journeys.
The first titles will be announced in September 2026.
Our collection's editorial line, art direction, and distribution partnerships are being finalized.
Join Us
We approach our authors ourselves. Unsolicited manuscripts are not read by default, but if your project matches our editorial line, write to us.
Translators, agents, foreign publishers: we are actively seeking French rights to essays and narratives published since 2023.
