About
The Lit Pub is an independent publishing company specializing in literary hybridity. We're interested in the genre-blurring that occurs when authors experiment with traditional and established forms of fiction, poetry, and non-fiction. We also serve our fellow publishers (as well as readers like you) by recommending at least one book a day on our blog.
