The series is commissioned and edited by artist and writer Stewart Home. The series will publish nine books, six of which will be selected from open submission, two commissioned by the editor, with Blood Rites of the Bourgeoisie by Stewart Home the final title in the series.
The selection from open submissions will be made by Stewart Home and Book Works. The series is designed by Fraser Muggeridge studio.
Deadline for applications is 29 May 2009.
