We publish books that matter — narrative and literary nonfiction on important topics, and the best of local, international, and translated fiction.

Join Simon Akam online on 16 October at 4pm as he discusses his new book The Changing of the Guard at Berwick Literary Festival.

Over the first two decades of the twenty-first century, Britain has changed enormously. During this time, the British Army fought two campaigns, in Iraq and Afghanistan, at considerable financial and human cost. Yet neither war achieved its objectives. Simon Akam questions why and provides challenging but necessary answers.

Registration for the event opens 1 September. For more information please visit the event website here.
