Our Latest Publication.

 

Welcome and Thank You for visiting Hakurosya Publishing.
We are always on the lookout for promising new unpublished writers and established authors. We are primarily in the business of translating English works of fiction and non-fiction into Japanese, then publishing and distributing them to the vast Japanese market. We also represent, publish and distribute local Japanese authors.


Hakurosya has received 73 manuscripts, which have traveled from far and wide to reach our offices, since September 11, 2005 when we first ran an advertisement in the New York Times soliciting submissions from aspiring Future Best-Sellers.

Hakurosya F ☆ B Series is an unprecedented project which was launched to give the people of Japan access to never-before-published works by incredibly talented debut writers whose literary gems have been unearthed through the initiative of the Hakurosya F ☆ B Series.
