Telegram Books: We Are Telegram

Telegram, the literary fiction imprint of Saqi Books, was founded in 2005 to publish the best in new and classic international writing, from debut novelists to established literary heavyweights. Telegram has brought cutting-edge and authoritative voices from the UK, Spain, North Africa, Korea, Hungary, France, China, the Middle East and beyond to readers with an appetite for "choice international fiction." (The Independent).

In 2009 we won the Diversity in Literature Award at the British Book Industry Awards. The judges said that we were "impressively multilingual, multicultural and international, with employment policies genuinely supporting diversity."

Award-winning Saqi Books was launched in 1983 to bridge the divide between Middle Eastern and Western cultures. Over the years, the list has expanded to include writers from around the world, with an expanding fiction list that prompted the establishment of Telegram.
