About Quirk
Welcome to our strange world. Quirk Books isn’t just a creative publishing company, it’s also a place where dreams come true (especially the ones involving monkeys), where there are no stupid ideas, where words and pictures live together in ironic bliss, and where bills are paid, invoices are sent, and numbers are crunched. Or is that QuickbooksTM?
In Quirk, you’ll find a publisher of impractical reference and irreverent nonfiction (probably the first ever). You’ll find a publisher of humor books, of pop culture books, of gift books, of reference books, and of hybrid books that cross over from market to market and genre to genre.
Our mission is to amuse, to bemuse, to entertain, and to inform (not necessarily in that order, but usually all at the same time). And so far, our mission has proved possible: In our short lifespan, several of Quirk’s books have become bestsellers.
There’s a lot more irreverence (and irreference) ahead, so check back for new releases, Web exclusives, general e-fun, and whatever crazy ideas we can dream up.
Thanks for visiting! We hope you will enjoy our list, and that you’ll become a Quirk aficionado (or Quirkhead) for many years to come.
Best,
David Borgenicht
President and Publisher
