Bareknuckle Books aims to become one of the most independent-minded and prestigious literary publishers in Australia. The company will initially publish around 5 new titles a year, both literary fiction,upmarket non-fiction and poetry and provides authors with the intimacy of a small, passionate and creative team while consistently punching above its weight in review coverage, cultural impact and sales.

Bareknuckle Books was launched in 2014 and champions the editorial principle to publish 'only writing we care passionately about'.

Bareknucle Books intend to establish a reputation for publishing intelligent, challenging and original books and for maintaining rigorous editorial standards. Our non-fiction tends to be voice-driven and narrative and to blur genre boundaries (and indeed frequently to define new genres). It includes memoirs ; popular philosophy ; reportage ; political and cultural investigation.

Bareknuckle Books publishes ground-breaking, ambitious, and beautifully written fiction, short stories, novellas and poetry We are always looking for and nurturing new Australian talent.

Barknucle Books also supports an online journal Bareknuckle Poet having published work by poets Robert Adamson and Samuel Wagan Watson as well as Short Fiction from Claire Gaskin & Melissa Ashley alongside works by many other authors both Australian and international. (http://bareknucklepoet.com)
