2017 New Titles
Welcome to Salt’s 2017 list. This is our eighteenth year of publishing and there has never been a more exciting time for the list.
In 2016, Salt had The Many by Wyl Menmuir longlisted for the Man Booker Prize. Paul McVeigh’s debut, The Good Son, was selected for Brighton’s City Reads, shortlisted for the Authors’ Club First Novel Award, chosen for the Irish Times Book of the Month, and went on to win the Polari First Book Prize 2016. In addition, Ron Butlin and Lesley Glaister were both longlisted for the International Dublin Literary Award 2016.
This year, Salt will continue to discover and share different, diverse and seriously entertaining reads. We hope you enjoy them.
