[A] popular refuge for well-regarded authors. . . . At a time when publishers increasingly see books as products and need to be convinced of their chances of selling at least 25,000 copies, Bellevue Literary Press thinks smaller and aims higher.

From Our Authors
The singular commitment to intellectually engaging work, regardless of challenges, together with the brilliant and worldly vision of its editors, has shaped BLP’s successful list and record from the beginning on. The books are wise, broad, sensitive, risk-taking, surprising, challenging and stimulating. I feel fortunate beyond belief to have found a home and champion for Inukshuk with BLP and have been humbled ever since by my inclusion with the list of authors they publish. I can think of no press more worthy of ongoing support.
Award Winning Titles
The Jump Artist, the Sami Rohr Prize-winning debut novel by Austin Ratner, is based on the true story of Philippe Halsman, whose role in the “Austrian Dreyfus Affair,” rocked Europe in the years leading up to World War II and who later became famous for his portraits of celebrities such as Marilyn Monroe and Salvador Dalí.
