Small Axe Books.
A dream. Our publisher exists for the purest desire to be here and do things our way: rocker and insubstantial, but also professionally and creatively. Yes, because more than "selling things", we want to add value and make every adventure worth embarking on, inaugurating a new style in Brazilian literature. They are frank and pretentious longings, it is true, but they are not asking anyone for permission to exist: they already are. Believe me, you didn't get here by chance ... so be welcome: take your seat and enjoy the trip! "If you are the big tree, we are the small axe, sharpened to cut you down, ready to cut you down" (Small Axe - music by Bob Marley)
