Bold new fiction that's missing from our bookshelves.

85% of the World’s population lives in the Majority World. Less than 15% is represented in global publishing & bookstores. 

Publishing bias. Stereotypes of a colonial past. The white lens. Whatever the reason. Our bookstores, libraries and charity shops are missing these bold fresh modern stories. 


Together, we explore and read beyond the familiar.

The People Behind the Box

Dev has stamps of 40 countries on her passport. Dhruv wants to match that number in the next 2 years by exploring bookstores in at least as many countries as a part of the Box. 


Small town kids, they can now be spotted around coffee shops, indie bookstores and libraries in London, plotting how to get the Box to change the publishing world but mostly pfaffing. 


Dhruv Bonnerjee is an award-winning journalist turned entrepreneur and Co-founder of A Box of Stories. Dev Kothari is a management consultant turned writer & poet. Her debut novel, Bringing Back Kay-Kay, was listed for many awards including the Jhalak Prize and Branford Boase award.


They share a conviction: exciting stories exist everywhere — and they want to look in places the world doesn’t always look.
