Publishing on the edge: the transformative power of books

At a time of unprecedented challenge, we seek new vision while upholding timeless values.

If you’re looking for comfort, curling up with a book may be an enticing idea. But occasionally, reading can also feel dangerous – for, through the pages of a book, you might change the way you view the world. Anyone who’s had the pleasure of immersing themselves in a book knows the power of well-crafted story-telling. You may emerge inspired or disturbed. You may experience an epiphany moment and see more clearly where you glimpsed only dimly before. It’s this transformative power that Bryn Glas Books seeks to uphold, along with the simple pleasure of fine writing.

This is why we claim we do publishing on the edge. In his Isle Fincara Trilogy, A G Rivett explores ideas that are ancient, but challenge the mainstream view. In Vu, Kenneth Sinclair breaks ground with a new form. Yet, though we seek new vision, we aspire to timeless values. At a time when our world faces unprecedented challenges, this awareness and this aspiration underlie all the books we publish through our Pantolwen Press imprint.

Quote from Vu by Kenneth Sinclair

— Time to begin, she said.

And so that night, the black hulls of the Greeks already on the blue Aegean, bound for Troy. The long sea oars drip diamond drops that flash in the noonday sun. In all beginnings there is a magic force.
