Jantar Publishing

Jantar is an independent publisher of Central European Contemporary Literary Fiction, Classic Fiction, Science Fiction and Poetry based in London.

Founded 2011, Jantar’s guiding principle is to make exceptional works of Central European Fiction and Poetry accessible through excellent translations into English. Our titles have been shortlisted for the EBRB Prize and the Warwick Women in Translation Prize as well as winning a number of English PEN Translation awards.

In 2023, we launched our series of historic Science Fiction titles beginning with the first ever SF text written in Czech (Newton’s Brain by Jakub Arbes. First published in 1877) and the first ever SF text written in Slovak (The Science of the Stars by Gustav Reuss. Written in 1856). Many more will follow.
