This is the UK (Ugly Kingdom) / EU outpost of PM Press. We’re an entire ocean away from where it all began; over at pmpress.org – head there for our full history.
Short version
PM Press was founded at the end of 2007 by a small collection of folks with decades of publishing, media, and organizing experience. PM Press co-conspirators have published and distributed hundreds of books, pamphlets, CDs, and DVDs. Members of PM have founded enduring book fairs, spearheaded victorious tenant organizing campaigns, and worked closely with bookstores, academic conferences, and even rock bands to deliver political and challenging ideas to all walks of life. We’re old enough to know what we’re doing and young enough to know what’s at stake.
We seek to create radical and stimulating fiction and nonfiction books, pamphlets, T-shirts, visual and audio materials to entertain, educate, and inspire you. We aim to distribute these through every available channel with every available technology, whether that means you are seeing anarchist classics at our bookfair stalls; reading our latest vegan cookbook at the café; downloading geeky fiction e-books; or digging new music and timely videos from our website.
The UK/EU experiment
The world is a mess. Capital might well eat itself, but it’s a messy diner and we’re all on the plate.
Books won’t topple the system – but they can inspire those who do, and inform those who support.
PM Press’ UK/EU experiment is a little adventure on this side of the pond to help shift some of those inspirational, entertaining and sometimes plain-old-useful books.
We also want to unearth good texts, support great struggles and attend a lot of conferences!
