Human scale publishing

We are a small, family press which exists to publish the unusual and awkwardly non-commercial creations of author Paul Kingsnorth. We make simple, good-looking little books, the old fashioned way.



“Things come at you and break you, other things inhabit and form you. Words descend to help you explain, and sometimes they even manage it.”

Savage Gods


“It came and sang in me in winter
when the light was low
and I was in the black fields
with frost across my shins
and the stubble of the corn gone white.”

These Were the Stories of My People


“Four times I have felt that presence. And each time, later, I have seen the Angel.”
