Galiot Sets Sail for Inaugural Season
Galiot Press, a Massachusetts-based indie publisher founded last year, has announced its first four titles. Edited by cofounders Henriette Lazaridis and Anjali Mitter Duva, Galiot’s inaugural, all-fiction slate will bring two titles this fall, beginning in October, followed by two titles in spring 2026. Galiot will put out three books per season moving forward, per the publisher.
Galiot’s inaugural slate includes: Robyn Ryle’s Sex of the Midwest (Oct. 14); Emily Ross’s Swallowtail (Nov. 18); Marian Mitchell Donahue’s Backstitch (March 3, 2026); and Irene Zabytko’s The Days of Miracle and Wonder (April 2026).
In a press release, Galiot explained their print on-demand model, which results in “diminished shipping and warehousing costs” and “favoring artistic risk over financial risk.” Galiot titles will appear on online platforms, and bookstores can order copies via the Ingram catalog, with direct-to-reader options also available on their site.
