Books

Our mission is to publish bold, ambitious books that tackle issues of public concern and challenge entrenched systems of power. A partnership between Type Media Center and Hachette Book Group, we amplify the voices of writers producing urgent, deeply-researched journalism, creative nonfiction, cultural analysis and social history, as well as memoirs that illuminate the intersection of the personal and the political.
