Verso Books is a publishing house based in London and New York City, founded in 1970 by the staff of New Left Review. The company boasts "global sales approaching $3 million per year and over 350 titles in print," possibly making it "the largest radical publisher in the English-language world."[1]
Verso was originally known as New Left Books. The publisher gained early recognition for translations of books by European thinkers, especially those from the Frankfurt School.
The name "Verso" refers to the technical term for the left-hand page in a book, and is a play on words regarding its political outlook.
Verso titles are distributed in the United States by W. W. Norton & Company.
