Fall Back With Kegedonce Press!

This autumn, join us as we revisit some of our great back list titles.

From groundbreaking fiction and outstanding poetry to gorgeously illustrated children’s books, Kegedonce Press has a back list of over fifty great Indigenous titles.

This fall, we highlight select titles from our back list with a special discount, author interviews, and other details about the books. We reached out to several Kegedonce Press authors to find out what they are doing now, and to have them reflect on the books they published with us. Five authors, seven books, and a great opportunity to explore, again or anew, these exceptional titles!
