What People Are Saying
One of the very few publishers today who believes in its authors and is committed to quality work for a thinking public.
Casa Carlini is where I often go to find myself in the presence of serious literature. And Charles Carlini is a treasure. He loves and respects good writing, and he has devoted himself to curating the best of the best. Our culture would be infinitely poorer without him.
Writing for Casa Carlini and working with Charles was deeply gratifying from start to finish. Without his patience and understanding, my book would not have been written. He is a humane publisher and gifted editor with genuine respect for the great lives celebrated by the Simply Charly series and the authors who bring them to life.
Working with Casa Carlini felt less like handing over a manuscript and more like entrusting them with a conversation. They understood that Fearful in Gaza was not simply a book, but a piece of my family’s memory, and treated it with care at every stage. I could not have asked for a more thoughtful home for it. Casa Carlini is a new way of publishing built on trust.
Casa Carlini stands out for championing writers beyond the usual names. Charles Carlini’s hands-on approach and tireless commitment to giving every book a chance to be discovered are truly a joy to behold.
