About

Cuttlefish Books is a niche press that primarily publishes Japanese short form collections. They were founded with a mentality to get necessary and challenging poetry into the hands of the people and to support the institutions that help further this goal. To this end, they seek to publish the voices often marginalized by the poetry community at large and to make their books as affordable and accessible as possible. They also take an active interest in working directly with independent bookstores and libraries to make the work as accessible to the necessary readers.
