It's the most wonderful list of the year: bookier than the Booker! More indie than your fave band! It's 75% indie publishers, 30% non-fiction, 25% translation, 20% poetry & 100% Burley Fisher. 

So say hello to the Burley Fisher Books of the Year as selected by our biggest, bookiest team ever: Cat, Elena, Emz, Enya, Forest, Lu, Sam & So.

Our overall Book of the Year is a deep, dark wintry novel of witness and renewal rooted in the natural world…

Thanks to a grant from the arts council, we are now offering an affordable risograph printing service at the bookshop.

A quick explainer, provided by the good folks at Risotto Studio:

It looks like a photocopier, but works as a screenprinter; using rich spot colours and stencils to create tactile and vibrant prints, affordably and with little impact to our environment.

Risograph printing has been used for high-volume printing in places like schools & political parties for many years, but over the past decade, it has undergone a resurgence with creatives adopting the process because of its tactile and unique results!

The RISO was designed to be a duplicator, with most of the work and cost in the artwork's set-up. So the more you print, the more economical the price becomes per print.

We will be running introductory workshops for those new to the process on how to design posters and zines to take best advantage from this unique printing process.
