Slightly Foxed brings back forgotten voices through its Slightly Foxed and Plain Foxed Editions, a series of beautifully produced little pocket hardback reissues of classic memoirs, all of them absorbing and highly individual. For younger bookworms – and nostalgic older ones too – there’s the Slightly Foxed Cubs series, in which we’ve reissued a number of classic nature and historical novels. Our online bookshop also includes a carefully-curated selection of titles from other publishers’ lists.

The office is well-stocked with smart gift cards, reams of brown wrapping paper and foxed ribbon. For last-minute gifts, we can send an e-gift card in advance of sending the subscription or item. You can arrange to do this during the checkout process.
Welcome to our virtual kitchen table. Here you can read articles and extracts from the quarterly magazine and our books, catch up with newsletters, find out more about our writers and artists, use the online index to hunt down articles published in back issues and seek out books featured in the magazine, listen to episodes of our podcast, and much more besides.
Dive inWe can offer week-long publishing work experience placements to applicants over the age of 18. As a small business, we’re unable to accommodate as many candidates as we’d like, but during our busier periods we can certainly do with an extra pair of hands.
Most of the work is fairly mundane (envelope stuffing, stocking shelves, helping with deliveries, preparing posts for social media and various errands) but we do offer the chance to see how an independent publisher works. The only caveat is that you need to like dogs as we are a dog-friendly office.
Work experience is unpaid but we do pay expenses of £10 per day. If you would like to be considered for work experience in 2023, please email [email protected] with your c.v. and covering letter addressed to Jess Dalby, along with your availability and we’ll try our best to find a week’s placement for you.
