Noir Mediterraneo (Mediterranean Noir): a genre that identifies in this geographical area an axis of criminal and political conflict, and publishes preeminent and commercially very successful authors such as Jean-Claude Izzo and Massimo Carlotto.

It contains the works of authors such as Chinua Achebe, Maryse Condé, Ahmadou Kourouma, Abasse Ndione, Zakes Mda, Cheik Hamidou Kane, Boris Boubacar Diop, Calixthe Beyala, Gisèle Pineau, and others.
Vite Narrate (Narrated Lives): a recently started collection of outstanding literary and novelized biographies. Recent and forthcoming subjects: Hemingway & Fitzgerald, Glen Gould, Sissi, Sylvia Plath, Christa Wolf, Greta Garbo, and others.
