Delighted to see Adam Oyebanji's A QUIET TEACHER featured on Brittle Paper's list of 100 Notable African Books of 2022!

"Greg Abimbola, a British-Nigerian man, imagines he has left his past as a spy behind and settles into a quiet life as a teacher in an American high school. And then someone turns up dead in the school. A deliciously fast-paced crime thriller!"

Our #introduction to #bookstodon!

Hello, we are Canongate Books, an independent #publisher of an eclectic mix of #authors for an eclectic and discerning audience of readers. You might know us from the spines of:

Life of Pi by Yann Martel
Lanark by Alasdair Gray
The Book of Form and Emptiness by Ruth Ozeki
The Midnight Library by Matt Haig
Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat by Samin Nosrat
The Outrun by Amy Liptrot
& many, many more.

We're based in Edinburgh and London, and next year we'll be 50. Hello!

We need to do an intro post for ourselves, but more importantly, follow @Argonaut_Books the newest member of the expansive, beloved indie bookshop scene in Edinburgh!

A quick #introduction:

We're a genre fiction publisher based in the UK, but you can find our books in the US too.

We were born in 1974 and are therefor exactly the same age as Robbie Williams.

Since 2017 we've been an imprint of @canongatebooks

These days we mainly publish crime and mystery books, but we've been known to venture into horror, sci-fi, fantasy, and the occasional romance.

We publish around 7 to 10 new #books every month so there's always something new to check out.

This is our Mastodon!

We have no idea what we're doing!

(But that doesn't seem to be much of a barrier to running a social media platform these days)

Anyway, follow us for stuff about crime and mystery books (and occasionally romance, fantasy, horror, and sci fi) 📚
