I just thought I'd give a shout-out to some - by no means all, sorry - of the excellent small press publishers that keep the weird, Gothic, and ghostly fiction traditions alive.
Tartarus Press was almost single-handedly responsible for the revival of interest in Robert Aickman, but they have produced a vast array of superb books from a remarkable range of writers. There are famous names, new names, neglected names. Their web site is always worth exploring.
The same can be said of Sarob Press, which has been producing a steady stream of orig
inal story collections and anthology for many years. Their latest title is by ST veteran Steve Duffy, no less!
In Dublin we have The Swan River Press, focusing (but not exclusively) on the Irish Gothic tradition, they specialise in high-quality anthologies and story collections.
In Canada we find Undertow Publications, dedicated to new genre fiction. As well as many high-quality hardbacks they also publish Weird Horror Magazine.
