A focused list.
Dawson Press is an independent publisher based in Madrid, with its editorial outlook shaped by a continuing connection to Dublin. We publish a selective list of literary and psychological fiction, from intimate drama to suspense and stories of coming of age.
Our books are published in English and, where the work calls for it, in translation. Each title is developed around its own voice, identity, and audience.
