​This cross-genre collection of short stories, microfiction, and drama provides a kaleidoscope of modern human experience—from navigating fraught romantic relation-ships and definitions of masculinity, to dealing with the pull of family ties and the struggle to make one's way in the world. 

​Featuring Latinx characters who are often caught between cultures, DIG explores themes of physical and emotional violence, human relationships, and the weight of politics, history, and culture on individuality and identity. 

​Robert Paul Moreira earned his M.F.A. in Creative Writing from the University of Texas Pan American, and his Ph.D. in English from the University of Texas at San Antonio. He is the editor of ¡Arriba Baseball!: A Collection of Latina/o Baseball Fiction (2013) and author of the story collection Scores, winner of the 2016 NACCS Tejas FOCO Fiction Award.

Cover Reveal for Forthcoming Novel!

We're pleased to present the cover reveal for the forthcoming experimental novel by Douglas Anderson, In Madison's Cave. 

In a series of chapters that mimic those of Thomas Jefferson's infamous book, Notes on the State of Virginia, an epistolary dialogue unfolds between Jefferson and Adams in old age. Their reflections, ranging from shocking to humorous, shed light on early American history, government & politics, education, race relations, and other themes that still resonate in modern American life.

In Madison's Cave will be published on September 14, 2021. For more information, see:

20% Off list price for two forthcoming titles from Frayed Edge Press!

Yearning for the Sea by
Esther Seligson; translated by Selma Marks. 

The Ghettobirds -- speculative poetry by Bryant O'Hara.

​Yearning for the Sea will officially launch on June 15; The Ghettobirds will officially launch on June 22.

Frayed Edge Press will be publishing the first-ever English-language editions of two early works by the acclaimed Norwegian author Jens Bjørneboe: Winter in Bellapalma and Ere the Cock Crows on May 25, 2021. Now for a limited time only, these titles may be pre-ordered at a 20% off discount. 

Winter in Bellapalma is a comic novel presenting the exploits of a community of expatriates living off-season in a small Italian fishing village, while Ere the Cock Crows is a chilling novel that follows the ethical quandaries--or not--of Germans involved in Nazi concentration camps and human medical experiments in World War II.

Jens Bjørneboe (1920-1976) was a Norwegian poet, playwright, essayist, and novelist who was arguably one of the most important writers of the mid-twentieth century. Although little known in the English-speaking world, his work has been translated into a number of European and world languages and remains highly regarded in Scandinavia. His last major work was The Sharks (Haiene, 1974) and his most critically acclaimed were the three volumes making up The History of Bestiality trilogy; all have been translated into English by Esther Greenleaf Mürer.

We're pleased to announce a new poetry volume, coming in 2021! The Ghettobirds by Bryant O'Hara is a ​collection of speculative poetry that celebrates the ability of humanity to adapt to, surpass, and possibly transcend its environment and its origins.

Author Bryant O’Hara draws on Afrofuturist traditions and a love of both the natural and the artificial world. He uses rhythm and cadence to compress thought into images of just how strange our experiences can become as we learn to shape—and be shaped by—both worlds.
