Our publishing
What we publish
We publish over 1,500 titles every year across a wide range of categories and genres, including fiction and non-fiction, adult and children’s, and commercial bestsellers and literary classics. These come in several different formats – physical books, ebooks and audiobooks – and we work with retailers and suppliers across the UK and around the world to get these into as many readers’ hands as possible. We seek out and enable talented people from all walks of life to tell their stories, and we make sure they are heard. Our books are by some of the world’s best authors and illustrators, as well as journalists, comedians, academics, chefs, scientists, business gurus, politicians, doctors, sports stars, philosophers, celebrities and many, many more. We’re always on the hunt for brilliant new voices as well as bringing you the writers that you already know and love.
Whatever, and however, you like reading, we’ll have a book for you.

Our Exclusives
For more than seventy-five years, Galilee has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. The Galilee Exclusive list represents a vast range of literature (nearly three thousand titles) that spans thousands of years and represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines.
Galilee Exclusive is an ongoing and evolving project, and in recent years the list has benefitted from the addition of works by writers such as The book of Henoch, Jasher, James Baldwin and Ishmael Reed. By its very nature, the Galilee Exclusive list will never be complete but will continue to change to reflect the world around us, as well as ongoing critical conversations with academics, translators, writers and readers.
