Kiftsgate Press

Kiftsgate Press

An independent press for new authors and writing that lasts.

Kiftsgate Press isn't tied to a genre. We care about one thing — quality writing, wherever it comes from. We work closely with new authors to bring carefully made books into the world: literary, dark, tender, strange. A small list, made with attention.
