Madonna Duffy is Publisher of the Month

November 2019, no. 416

What was your pathway to publishing?

An Arts degree and a youthfully optimistic view that I could land a job in publishing when I was living in London in my twenties. Working at Penguin Books in the wake of Penguin’s publishing Salman Rushdie’s The Satanic Verses was an exciting and dramatic time. I was sold on the courage, the passion, and the literary life around me.

 

How many titles do you publish each year?

Up to fifteen titles. This has traditionally been across fiction, poetry, and non-fiction at UQP, but I’m focusing more now on non-fiction.
