About the publisher

October is a Chinese literary publishing institution whose catalogue centers on the journal October and its long-form fiction edition. Its publishing focus is the serial publication and collected release of contemporary novellas and novels and other literary works. Representative titles include issues 1 through 6 of October 2024, as well as issues 1 and 4 of October (Long-Form Fiction) 2024, reflecting a publishing approach that steadily releases literary content by annual issue. In terms of authors, the catalogue is mainly associated with the editorial departments of October and October (Long-Form Fiction), indicating that editorial teams coordinate the solicitation and compilation of manuscripts. Common category information is limited in the catalogue, and publicly available material is also limited, so no further description of other book categories is possible at present; the existing titles already show a publishing profile centered on a literary journal while also collecting long-form works.
