ABOUT US
So you want to know more about us?
Welcome to the Allen & Unwin blogsite!
We know choosing your next read is hard so we've created this site for you!
We wanted to create a place that gives readers the chance to delve deeper into the world of books. Here you’ll find interviews with your favourite authors (and soon to be new favourites), book excerpts, details about our bookish events all around the country, and we'll give you a glimpse behind the scenes into the world of book publishing.
Spoiler alert: it's a pretty fun place!
​
Our site is managed by the enthusiastic marketing team at Allen & Unwin Australia. We love our books, and we hope this site will help you find books you love too.
​
Happy reading!
​
With love,
The A&U Marketing Team xoxo
