London- and Prague-based Equus Press (Écriture en Quête d’Usage), founded in 2011, focuses on publishing experimental Anglophone writers [1] and is concerned primarily with English language writing from outside of normal English-speaking areas.[2]

Since it was established, Equus Press has published the works of such as authors Louis Armand, Thor Garcia, Ken Nash, and Damien Ober.

In April 2013, Equus Press published Louis XXX (Georges Bataille) in a translation by Stuart Kendall.[3] 2014 saw the release of Cairo (Louis Armand), a novel shortlisted for the 2014 Guardian Not-the-Booker Prize,[4] and the novel Doctor Benjamin Franklin’s Dream America (Damien Ober) which deals with an alternative American colonial history.[5]
