Our story
For 25 years, Les Arènes has published a selection of books ranging from brainy but accessible essays, non-fiction comics and graphic novels, children’s books and noir novels. With less than a hundred titles a year, from spectacular bestsellers to more intimate publications, we put our hearts into every project we publish.
Our team is small but crafty, and we produce everything in-house, from production to sales to digital communication. We strive to find new ways of telling stories, showcase groundbreaking voices, and reach out to readers in innovative ways. We often wonder: what does the future hold?
Join us in discovering curious minds and big idea books and engage in international projects.
