Welcome to Aurora Metro Books, an award-winning independent publisher of distinctive new fiction, intelligent non-fiction and world drama. For over three decades we have been publishing original voices, championing diversity and equality, and promoting work in translation. With our associated charity, we also successfully campaigned for the first ever full size statue of Virginia Woolf, which was unveiled in 2022 in Richmond, where we are based.

BOOKS TO READ

We love great stories and our books have been adapted for film, tv and radio and translated into several languages.

NON- FICTION FROM SUPERNOVA

Our highly-regarded non-fiction titles delve deeper into the arts, technology, humanities, and popular culture.

We launched our biennial Virginia Prize for Fiction in 2009 aiming to find new women novelists writing in English from around the world and here are some of the fantastic winning novels.
