One press. One major book. A clear purpose.
Blunted Quill Press is a small independent publishing and rights-administration company created to publish and support intellectually substantial work.
Blunted Quill Press
Blunted Quill Press LLC administers publishing rights, distribution relationships, contracts, promotion, and future publishing work. It does not pretend to be a large house. Its immediate purpose is to publish The Garden of Hedon carefully and give the book a durable home.
The company organizes the work. The reader-facing emphasis remains on the book, its ideas, and its author.
Andrew Kirk
Andrew Kirk writes about consciousness, compulsion, belief, civilization, and the stories through which human beings organize experience. His work is interested in the distance between what the organism does and what the narrator later says it meant.
The Garden of Hedon is his first major book from Blunted Quill Press.
His writing approaches large philosophical questions through biology, psychology, history, myth, and ordinary human experience.
