Canongate

Hi, we’re Canongate, an independent publisher based in Edinburgh and London.

 

We publish all kinds of books: incredible fiction (like the best-ever-selling Booker winner Life of Pi) and non-fiction (from Barack Obama’s memoir Dreams From My Father to Samin Nosrat’s new cookery classic Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat). We made some lists of some of our books: have a look around!
