Palimpsest Press

Palimpsest Press Logo
Palimpsest Press is committed to discovering and fostering new talent, supporting established writers, and ensuring our trade books are well-distributed and kept in print. We publish original poetry, literary non-fiction and criticism, and collectible limited editions. We are national in scope and not limited to one style of writing or one genre. It is our belief that a vital role of small presses is to build and support literary communities and to create audiences. We look for writers who have something interesting to put forward, and who come at a topic with a fresh perspective. By publishing in a wide variety of formats and in beautiful editions, Palimpsest has attracted many of the best writers in Canada.
