Now Out from #Ranger Press: Noetic Variations, v1 and v2

Noetic Variations, v1 and v2 are experiments in extreme poetic abstraction, eschewing the appearance of formal narrative and mainstream convention. The NV project is an exciting postmodern exercise in pure language, stripped of all meaning and impervious to literary interpretation. Download free copies here: V1 V2 or purchase here: V1 V2.

Consequence Volume 17.1 Now Available

In Consequence Volume 17.1, a theme emerges of how affecting a difference doesn’t only have to happen on a global scale—it can and should include the more local ones. This is maybe most conspicuously expressed in the essay “A Trip to Kosovo” where a doctor returns to the war-torn country to navigate its broken bureaucracy in hopes of getting his nephew immediate cancer treatment and ends on the line: If the world can be saved, it will be by small acts of kindness.

Welcome to Strangelove Country

“I have always enjoyed dealing with a slightly surrealistic situation and presenting it in a realistic manner. I’ve always liked fairy tales and myths, magical stories, supernatural stories, ghost stories, surrealistic and allegorical stories. I think they are somehow closer to the sense of reality one feels today than the equally stylized ‘realistic’ story in which a great deal of selectivity and omission has to occur in order to preserve its ‘realistic’ style.”—STANLEY KUBRICK, “Kubrick Country”

Unsolicited Press Declares 2025 the “Year of Womxn”

Celebrating Women’s Voices in Literature

In a time when women’s rights and autonomy are under siege, Unsolicited Press is dedicating 2025 to amplifying womxn’s voices in literature. Through its “Year of Womxn” initiative, the press will release a catalog exclusively featuring works by womxn writers, all marked by bold red covers. This striking color, inspired by historic feminists like Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Charlotte Perkins Gilman, symbolizes liberation and rebellion, making each cover a powerful protest and a testament to womxn’s voices. “Womxn are the backbone of publishing. They create, they support, they elevate the industry but are too often sidelined. Our 2025 Year of Womxn catalog is our way of championing their unparalleled creativity and storytelling,” said the team at Unsolicited Press.
