About Salt Publishing

Founded in Cambridge in 1999 and now based in Cromer, Norfolk, Salt is one of the UK’s most respected independent publishers. For over twenty-five years, Salt has championed bold, singular writing, launching the careers of over a thousand writers worldwide. Known for its editorial rigour and distinctive design, the press rose to international prominence when Alison Moore’s The Lighthouse was shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize in 2012.

Today, Salt publishes a diverse range of literary fiction, poetry, and narrative non-fiction, alongside a vibrant new line of crime and historical genre fiction. With over a hundred major literary prize nominations, Salt remains a vital home for the singular and the daring in British letters.
