The publishing house

A home for books with a long future.

Independent by conviction, international in outlook, and guided by the belief that careful publishing still matters.

The Ersan Publishing editorial studio
Our beginning

Founded around a table, shaped by conversation.

Ersan Publishing began in 1998 with three books, two editors, and a shared conviction that ambitious writing deserved an equally ambitious home.

Today our list brings together literary fiction, essays, poetry, and cultural history. We remain independent so every editorial decision can begin with the same question: will this book still matter years from now?
