S.Fischer

Founded in Berlin in 1886, S. Fischer Verlag is one of the most traditional institutions in the German book market. Historically, the company's profile has been decisively shaped by the publication of central authors of classical modernism, including Thomas Mann, Franz Kafka and Stefan Zweig. This combination of literary tradition and the cultivation of important editions of works still forms the core of the publishing house's identity today.

The current programme covers the areas of contemporary literature, non-fiction and entertainment. While the main publishing house focuses on contemporary fiction as well as socio-political and historical topics, various imprints cover specific genres such as crime fiction, fantasy and science fiction. The publishing house thus serves different segments of the book market, from academic non-fiction to popular fiction.

The portfolio is complemented by an extensive range of paperbacks, which includes both original editions and licences. By providing digital formats and continuously expanding its catalogue, the Frankfurt am Main-based publishing house covers a broad spectrum of current book production and makes both classics and new publications accessible to a wide audience.
