Sutton Hoo Press

Sutton Hoo Press is a literary fine press named after the famous Anglo-Saxon archaeological dig of a royal ship burial. The name signals our editorial mission: to bring to light the work of promising young writers and poets, as well as to publish work by well-known authors, in order to define exacting standards of writing in contemporary fiction and poetry.

The primary mission of the press is to publish contemporary literature in handsomely designed limited editions. Sutton Hoo Press publishes well-known writers such as Philip Levine, Lynne McMahon, Charles Wright, Maurya Simon, Gary Young and Peter Everwine, as well as younger, emerging writers. We have released books to our subscribers, and to interested individuals and institutions, at Thanksgiving, Valentine's Day, and Memorial Day.

Please let us know if you would like a visit from us at your home or library. We often coordinate such visits to show works from the press when we are giving readings nearby or visiting family and friends across the country. We would be grateful for the opportunity to meet with you.
