About Us

Pulley Press was founded in 2001 in Santa Fe, New Mexico.

 

The name Pulley Press was chosen for its alliteration, contradiction (pull and press), and its distant homonymnal relation (the "bully pulpit"). In addition, the pulley conveys a mechanical advantage when work needs to be performed, which recalls the importance of both ingenuity and effort, and of the heart's pleasure that comes with the intellectual and tactile enjoyment of a well-designed, thought-provoking book.

 

Pulley Press is dedicated to producing small runs of books that are challenging to produce, but that are worth printing precisely because their demanding format is essential to the book's content. Please examine at least one of our books before contacting us about submitting a manuscript.
