About Us
Turned Head Books wants to share fiction authors from the past, for today's readers
We don't just reprint old titles; we want to bridge the gap between today's readers and voices of previous centuries. By reintroducing these works, we provide a window into the unique social and historical forces of past eras. We bypass the standard canon to revive less widely known authors, providing additional context that can help to bridge their relevant perspectives with modern readers.
