Founded in 1975, Majd Books has grown into one of the most respected independent publishers of literature and ideas — building a catalogue that spans fiction, history, philosophy and poetry, in editions made to last.
From our offices in Bloomsbury we continue our work: publishing serious books with care, championing new authors, and bringing the world's writing to English-language readers everywhere.
