Les Flâneurs Edizioni was founded in 2015 by a group of young literature enthusiasts. The French term "flâneur" refers to a distinctly early twentieth-century intellectual figure who, armed with a bowler hat and a walking stick, wanders aimlessly through the streets of his city discussing literature and philosophy. Today, as then, the publishing house aims to spread literary culture in all its forms, from fiction to poetry to essays, with independent thinking and a keen eye for quality.
