Read deeply
Enduring books that reward attention and rereading.
Our Story
Who We Are
Books that linger: on the shelf, in the mind, and in conversation.
Founded by Charles Carlini, Casa Carlini is an independent publishing house for readers who want more from the page.
We publish enduring classics, literary criticism, biography, history, and books of ideas—works selected not only to entertain, but to sharpen the mind, enlarge the conversation, and reward a return visit.
Our list is eclectic by design, but united by one standard: every Casa Carlini book should be worth reading, discussing, and keeping.
What guides Casa Carlini

Ideas, histories, and literary lives that expand the conversation.
Keep close
Beautifully made books with a lasting place in your library.
Our Approach
Independent by design.
Independence gives Casa Carlini the freedom to follow curiosity, champion overlooked work, and publish with a long view in mind. We can return to an enduring classic, introduce readers to an underappreciated writer, or make room for a book that brings a difficult history into clearer view.
We believe books are more than products. They can be companions, provocations, educations, and the beginning of lifelong interests. Our work is to bring readers and lasting books together—and to make that encounter feel inviting, thoughtful, and worthwhile.
