Saturnalia Books’ mission is to publish literary works, primarily poetry, of high merit, by new and established writers; to encourage collaboration between poets and visual artists, particularly in book form; and to encourage the publication of literature of a non-commercial and challenging nature.

At present, Saturnalia Books publishes two book series per year: the Artist/Poet Collaboration Series, and the winner of the Saturnalia Books Poetry Prize. We regret that we do not take unsolicited submissions.
