Every book we publish reaches readers because people like you help it get there. A small press depends on its readers. These are the things that make the most difference.
1. Ask your library
Ask your public or university library to order our titles by ISBN, usually through a “suggest a purchase” form. It takes five minutes, and each copy on a library shelf reaches dozens of readers. Libraries building Slavic, Eastern European or world literature collections are especially encouraged. ISBNs and ordering details →
2. Review and recommend
Leave a review on Goodreads, Amazon or your retailer of choice. Recommend a title to your book club. Share it on social media. For a small press, word of mouth from readers is the strongest promotion there is.
3. Give a Grunwald book
A first English translation of a suppressed classic, or a new book in Belarusian for someone who reads it, makes a memorable gift. Every purchase funds the next title. Buying several copies? Ask us about publisher pricing.
4. Donate
Donations go directly into translation and production. Donate via PayPal →
5. Join the community

- scholars of Belarusian and Eastern European studies
- Belarusian–English translators and bilingual readers
- illustrators, designers and other artists
- Belarusian writers, at home or abroad, looking for a home for their work
