Kitsune Books was founded in 2006 to make available to the reading public a variety of unique, artistic, well-written books that might normally be passed over by larger mainstream publishers. We specialize in quality books of literary fiction, inspirational non-fiction, poetry, and literary criticism. We are not a mass-market publisher and have no desire to be. We're looking for unusual, well-crafted manuscripts that are somewhat off the beaten path. We welcome both new and previously published authors.
