    Publisher Spotlight - Hanuman Editions

    "Hanuman Editions is a publishing project reimagining the legacy of Hanuman Books, the legendary and cult series of chapbooks that were printed in southern India and published out of the storied Chelsea Hotel in New York City between 1986 and 1993. Our books are designed as a contemporary homage to the playful kitsch and small, object-like format of the original series, evoking the Hanuman Chalisa, a folk compendium of chants to the Hindu god Hanuman, sold in the bazaars of India. As Hanuman Editions, we seek to gather a trans-geographical, trans-disciplinary poetics through commissioned writings in the spirit of avant-garde foundations."
