Celebrating 17 Years Of Independent Literary Publishing

About Us

Brandl & Schlesinger, celebrating seventeen years of publishing, has established a reputation as one of Australia’s most renowned independent publishers. We publish and nurture first time authors, with many of their titles winning major literary awards. We have a diverse list of quality fiction and non-fiction, literary memoir and biography, academic journals, translations and a distinctive poetry list. As an independent publisher we are committed to publishing books that are often overlooked by the multi-national conglomerate publishers, and that appeal to both the national and international market.

We also introduce our new imprint, Verand Press, which focusses on health and self-help titles.

We also publish 'Southerly', Australia’s oldest literary magazine.

Our distributors are Macmillan Distribution Services for Australia and Pansing in Singapore for Southeast Asia. Please check this web site for further information on all our authors and books, awards, agents, submission requirements and news updates.

Brandl & Schlesinger is a member of the Australian Publishers’ Association and SPUNC.

Brandl & Schlesinger gratefully acknowledges the assistance of the Commonwealth Government through the Australia Council for the Arts, its art funding and advisory body.
