Welcome to Parthian, publishers of fiction, poetry and drama.

 

A Carnival of Voices

We are based in Aberteifi on the west coast of Wales and publish many of the younger generation of Welsh writers such as Lloyd Robson, Susie Wild and Matthew David Scott. But while what we publish reflects a diverse contemporary Wales it is also based around stories and perspectives from writers who are looking out or write about a wider world. We produce an innovative range of new fiction, poetry and drama, within this we feel the carnival of voices has a story and we are always interested in a good story.

As an independent publisher in the best sense of the word, our aims of quality writing produced to the highest standards have enabled us to develop a national profile. We aim to keep our writers and readers in touch with our ideas and developments through personal contact, direct mailing and a continual series of writer and reader events.
