The Beginning
We are Chiaroscuro Books, an independent publisher based in the deep, dark south of London.
We were born from a desire to publish works where the writing is the driving force, where creativity and originality are the foundations upon which everything else is built.
Chiaroscuro Books is a place that nurtures innovation, where an author’s imagination is free to awaken. It's a place where the love of writing and the passion it kindles can find a home.
Refusing to be bound by the standard rules that govern the industry, we work with only one guiding principle: we love books and we love the books we publish, books that we hope you’ll love too.
