About Us

We established Arabic Publishing with the vision to address lack of Arabic works in the UK and Europe in general and support the efforts to take this beautiful language out from the list of those decaying.

We want to open the doors of the Arabic literary world to readers in the UK and beyond. We aim to curate, translate, and publish a vibrant range of Arabic voices-classics and contemporary-so that stories, culture, and ideas are accessible and available around the world.

Our Mission

Champion Availability and Accessibility

  • Build a diverse catalogue spanning fiction, memoir, poetry, children’s literature and scholarship, ensuring every reader—from the curious newcomer to the seasoned Arabist—finds something to spark their imagination.

  • Leverage print, eBook and audiobook formats, plus targeted outreach in libraries, schools and digital platforms, to reach readers wherever they are.

Bridge Cultural Divides

  • Commission translations that preserve the lyrical nuance of the original texts and make them resonate with new audiences.

  • Partner with academic centres, literary festivals and community groups to stage author talks, workshops and reading circles across the UK and Europe.

By weaving together authors, translators, and readers of all backgrounds, we don’t just publish books—we cultivate ongoing dialogues between cultures, fostering empathy, understanding and lifelong curiosity.
