current titles

Litmus Press was established in 2001 with the publication of Aufgabe #1. A year later we released our first full-length title, The House Seen from Nowhere by Keith Waldrop. Since then, we have published 2-3 titles a year, including translations and bilingual editions. We remain focused on the innovative work of emerging, established, and under-represented authors in single-author, perfect bound editions.


Litmus Press on Cross-Cultural Poetics, Show #146: Leonard Schwartz interviews E. Tracy Grinnell (editor), Brenda Iijima (author), and Stacy Szymaszek (author).
