‘All human life needs Salt.’ —Simon Armitage
‘Salt is an essential part of the UK publishing ecosystem, championing a huge range of authors, always finding room for new, innovative voices and a go-to for some of the best fiction around today.’ —Catherine Taylor
‘In a dull and conformist publishing landscape, Salt’s list stands out for its rich flavours, colours and accents. In poetry, novels or the short fiction that the imprint champions so well, Salt titles surprise, intrigue and delight. These are books by writers who find their own voice. They deserve readers who go their own way.’ —Boyd Tonkin
