Askance is a Cambridge based publishing house which specialises in innovative and different thinking.  Its scope is wide and includes unsual stories, quirky travel-writing, contemporary thought,  and creative art books or poetry.

We use cutting edge print-on-demand and e-book technology to bring carefully selected high quality articles and books straight to your hand-held device, computer or printed and delivered to your door at an affordable price.

Published in August 2011, “A Better Basra” by Caroline Jaine is the first publication to become available via this website.  The book was formally launched in November by Lord Ahmed of Rotherham at the House of Lords.

We are currently working ten titles for publication in 2012 with a range of authors – once published they will also be available through these pages.  Our current list of titles is on our publications page.
