Five Years of Renard Press: An Evening of Readings and Celebration

Join us for a special evening celebrating the Renard Press family and half a decade of publishing beyond the mainstream
About this Event

Five years. 60 months. 175 books released. 2,500 trees planted.

We're delighted to invite you to join the Renard Press family for a very special evening celebrating milestones in our first five years of publishing!

2020 was a tough old time to start a business, and that Renard has survived – and is thriving – is testament to all those behind the books, from our authors to our freelancers, sales reps, distributors, subscribers, newsletter readers, Tweeters and 'Grammers… so here's our thank-you!

We're delighted to be taking over St Mary's Islington for the evening, home to friends Poetry Above the Crypt, for a soirée celebrating milestones of the past five years – and we're delighted to have a brilliant line-up of authors and poets scheduled to serenade us over a glass of wine.

With readings from poetry anthologies, non-fiction titles and novels, from the very first contemporary book we published (the aptly named ) to the latest poetry collection (), here's a sparkling evening ahead – so please join us for an unforgettable (we hope for the right reasons – RMT, please time your strikes well) evening celebrating the power of the written – and spoken – word.

Plus ones are not so much welcome as insisted upon – we've got a big space to fill, so please, bring your bookish friends for an evening that will warm the soul in the cold months ahead!
