Voland & Quist Wins Prestigious Berliner Verlagspreis

The award recognizes the innovative spirit and literary contributions of small, independent publishers in Berlin.

The Große Berliner Verlagspreis, worth €26,000, was awarded to Voland & Quist for their experimental and boundary-pushing publications.
Founded in Dresden in 2004, Voland & Quist is celebrated for exploring new literary worlds and defying traditional publishing norms.
Additional prizes of €15,000 each were awarded to Reprodukt and Transit Verlag, highlighting the diversity of Berlin's publishing scene.
Berlin's Kultursenator Joe Chialo emphasized the importance of independent publishers in fostering democratic discourse and diverse perspectives.
Since 2018, the Berliner Verlagspreis has honored the dedication of small publishers who take financial risks to champion literature.
