Faber is one of the world’s great independent publishing houses. Since we were founded in 1929, poetry has been at the heart of our publishing, with T. S. Eliot as our first Poetry Editor. In every generation, Faber has sought to find the very best writers and we are proud to publish the foremost voices in fiction, non-fiction, poetry, drama, film and children’s books. Thirteen Nobel Laureates and six Booker Prize-winners have been published by Faber, with awards most recently for Kazuo Ishiguro and
Anna Burns.

Photos on the Wall
This is undoubtedly one of the most moving photos in the Faber archive. It was taken by a staff photographer on 5 Jan 1965, the day after T. S. Eliot’s death, in the Faber office at 24 Russell Square, where he had worked as editor and director since 1925.
Faber Academy provides writing courses, manuscript assessments and mentoring programmes across a wide range of disciplines including fiction, poetry and memoir. We ran our first course in 2008, and since then have gone on to see our alumni secure major publication deals, win awards and begin their writing careers.
