Discover ZED: RBF Publisher Highlights
Lindsay
Zed Books' tagline is 'A platform for marginalised writers' and they are home to many Lighthouse faves, including Nawal El Saadawi!
Established in 1977 and for over 40 years owned by its workers, Zed was for a long while the world’s biggest English-language publishing collective. They were bought up by Bloomsbury last year and though now incorporated into a bigger beast remain independent and continue to publish terrific work.
With over 2000 titles in their back-catalogue, they specialise in books on international current affairs, LGBT+ culture and politics, race and environment. Browse the selection below to discover the wide-ranging nature of their titles.
