<1% series

 

terra incognita would like to announce:

*a new direction in publishing*

At terra incognita, we aim to publish a series of quality, innovative novels with *limited market appeal*. Less than one percent of people who buy books are likely to buy a book from this series.

We are proud to serve that small market for literature which values innovation, excellence and challenging subject matter.

We have a growing suspicion that the mass market inhibits, perhaps even effectively censors, true creativity and individual expression. Anything that might be difficult to market will go unsupported and ultimately silenced. We have a commitment to art and literature, ethics and thought and we have begun to believe the market doesn't share our values. Each title within the series will have a maximum print run of 250, will be affordable (around the average price for paperbacks) and all editions are on quality paper. If we are proven wrong and there is a slightly larger market, we are happy to produce second or third editions.

The <1% series is a celebration of the true diversity of artistic and literary concern; a celebration the great variety of excellence. We do not regard this project as marginal, or even self-marginalising, despite knowingly shirking mass appeal.
Instead we are specialists.

New authors are invited to contact terra incognita for further information on publishing within this series.
