I learned of this press from Les Fugitives when I ordered The Living Days. Les Fugitives emailed me to let me know that they were happy to complete my order, but I could order the book from NYC based The Feminist Press and save on shipping. I was again impressed by the support indie presses offer each other and happy to support The Feminist Press, of course.
Feminist Press has a September special with free shipping using the code SEPTEMBER2022. I'm not sure if this extends beyond the US but I'll be taking advantage of it to explore some of their back catalogue.


The Feminist Press publishes books that ignite movements and social transformation. Celebrating our legacy, we lift up insurgent and marginalized voices from around the world to build a more just future.
Founded in 1970, we began as a crucial publishing component of second wave feminism, reprinting feminist classics by writers such as Zora Neale Hurston and Charlotte Perkins Gilman, and providing much-needed texts for the developing field of women’s studies with books by Barbara Ehrenreich and Grace Paley. We publish feminist literature from around the world, by best-selling authors such as Shahrnush Parsipur, Ruth Kluger, and Ama Ata Aidoo; and North American writers of diverse race and class experience, such as Paule Marshall and Rahna Reiko Rizzuto. We have become the vanguard for books on contemporary feminist issues of equality and gender identity, with authors as various as Anita Hill, Justin Vivian Bond, and Ann Jones.
