GAIA Paperbacks

“When seagulls follow the trawler, its because they think sardines will be thrown into the sea.” Eric Cantona.

GAIA's publication policies follow a creative theme, not dissimilar to its other departments.


We feel, at GAIA, that education can be creative to teach, creative to learn and be a process of learning for both parties in itself.


Our publications are dramatic and creative, but also, find a way through this to be educational and informative: without being over-bearing and over-zealous.


We enjoy the process of working with all manner of writers, whether they be poets, scriptwriters, novelists, story-tellers or any other number of descriptions. We revel in the unorthodox partnerships of writers and illustrators and themes and styles. The development of a working relationship between ourselves and the writer/illustrator is as important as the final work.


No gloss, no gifts, no badge, no toys, no gimmicks, no pull-outs, no pull-offs or pop-ups, no dumbing-down, no paraphenalia, no merchandising, no DVD's - Just books.

"The life of the poem does not begin on paper... A poem lives - truly lives - when it is darkly palpitating within the poet, kicking around inside him, when the poet still has no clear idea of what it will become, still senses it only as a vague presentiment, a promise, a hope... All poems are at their best before they are written." Yevgeny Yevtushenko from "The Face Behind The Face".
