Ugly Duckling Presse is a nonprofit publisher for poetry, translation, experimental nonfiction, performance texts and books by artists. It was transformed from a 1990s zine into a Brooklyn-based small press by a volunteer editorial collective that has published more than 200 titles to date. Ugly Duckling favors emerging, international and “forgotten” writers, and its books, chapbooks, artist’s books, broadsides and periodicals often contain handmade elements, calling attention to the labor and history of bookmaking.
