About

Fernweh (n.) — German for “farsickness” or “wanderlust.” A longing for distant places. An ache for somewhere you've never been. A yearning for something you cannot name.

Fernweh Publishing House was founded on a simple belief: the best stories are the ones that leave you changed. We publish fiction that captures fernweh -- that ache for worlds you have not visited, lives you have not lived, doors you have not opened. Our catalog spans literary fiction, fantasy, and the spaces between genres where the most interesting stories live. Every book we publish is chosen for one quality above all others: it must make you feel something you cannot quite name.
