Ker Éditions principally publishes novels aimed at young people (Marie-Aude Murail, Yak Rivais, Frank Andriat, Michel Honaker…) and essays on human sciences (teaching, medicine…). In both cases, its ambition is to participate in the construction of a better world as much by means of fiction as by means of the voices of visionnaries and first-hand witnesses.

We believe that a book made of paper is a cutting-edge technology which has possibilities still to be explored; and Vies parallèles will take special care with the book-as-object, so as to give the words within it their maximum differentiation. We want to make difficult texts available to the widest possible readership, and the fact is that first impressions are decisive. Open and exacting, we will operate without prejudice, yokes or shackles, and will not let ourselves be confined to the narrow straits of straight (if parallel) lines. Vies parallèles will not conform.

The Employé du Moi is a Brussels-based comic book publishing house founded around 2000 by a few cartoonists. Its book production evolves around and according to desires, experiences, vibes, and encounters; and its editorial line follows what is commonly known as independent comics. The genres it publishes range from intimate stories to adventure fictions, suspense thrillers and sometimes even erotic tales. Employé du Moi devotes a special attention to the stories’ depth and their narrative quality. The experience and relationship with the author throughout the creation and publication of a book are deeply cherished.

Created in 2000 by Xavier Francart, Aparté is a publishing house centred on Belgian heritage in the wider sense : the natural, architectural, artistic, historic and urban heritage of the country.
The approach to these subjects purports to be clearly different, in the level of the collection as much as the form of it. The works, edited and published by specialists passionate about the subject, are aimed at the wider public. Each of the books is constructed around a particular concept, which means, for a reader open to discovery, constantly met expectations.

Diagonale is an independent Belgian publishing house. Founded in 2014 by Ann-Gaëlle Dumont and Pascaline David, it launches new authors and specialises in publishing first novels of all genres.
Aware of the difficulties authors face when trying to break into the publishing world, it offers to return rejected manuscripts in the format of synopses, allowing authors to be guided and encouraged in their writing. Subsequently, they form a trusting relationship with the author, useful for developing a literary career in fictional texts.
It benefits links in the book chain by placing its application forms for manuscripts in its books. It therefore encourages the discovery and sale of first novels in book shops.

Le Frémok is an association founded in June 2002 by fusion of two publishing houses of alternative comics, Fréon (Belgique) and Amok (France). Their founders, all comic book authors themselves, share the same passion which drives them to confront the reconstruction of the ninth art.
Le Frémok has become, therefore, a platform which allows authors and volunteers to carry out the most extreme experiments in the field of graphic literature, breaking down the barriers between genres, mixing poetry and politics, world outlooks and visual art narratives, art outsider and philosophical mass, young people’s literature and comic books, contemporary art and demonic series.
Le Frémok still believes in the book, and explores and rejects the specifics of the methods of printing, to make books which blow apart the preconceived norms of production in the genre.

La Fonderie is a non-profit organization created in 1983 by a group of committed residents and historians. It occupies the site of the former art foundry "La Compagnie des Bronzes". Our objectives are to preserve and make known the industrial memory of Brussels and that, more general, of work in all its forms.
La Fonderie is also a publishing house. We publish heritage, scientific and cultural works.
The original approach of the "Cahiers de La Fonderie" is to highlight the man, his work and his daily life. The articles in this historical review evoke the economic and industrial life of Brussels, the social and industrial heritage but also the history of the inhabitants of Brussels. We question the present and the future of the Brussels Region and its inhabitants from a historical analysis.
