About Dixi Books
As a specialized publisher, our focus is on the hidden gems of the literature world.
About
The calendar marks the change of a year or a century; however, it does not reflect the spirit of the new age. We are heading into the 21st century, and although humanity has long been present on this planet, remnants of past centuries continue to obstruct our politics, philosophy, ecology, and so forth.
Dixi Books aims to be the voice of the New Age. Humanity has ever new problems to address, and it has already been proved that these problems cannot be dealt with using out-dated practices. We cannot meet the new needs and tastes in art and literature using old methods of understanding. We need brand new novels, creative political discourses, schools of thought that fit the age, intellectuals who can articulate new knowledge, and publishing houses that will represent them.
“This new century has tied cultures tightly through new technological possibilities and accelerated travel opportunities, thus creating areas in which diverse cultures influence one other to a great extent.”
Within this context, these advancements and consequent needs present various challenges to the publishers of all sorts to produce supranational, unique, and authentic works.
With an ever-growing list of publications in literature, ecology, history, education, sociology, and philosophy, Dixi Books is inviting writers from all around the world to join us in providing fresh ways of understanding for those who seek it.
Our books are original, creative, innovative, participative, surprising, and exciting. In order to perform a shift from out-dated paradigms, we are calling writers and readers to join us in going beyond the ordinary.
We are with Greta

Radio doesn’t rely on visual images to a paint picture for us. Rather, it relies on sound – voices, music, sound effects, and even silence, to tell a story. It is this interweaving of sound, narrative, and imagination that prompts us to construct our own images in our mind. It is this magical confluence which sets the listener free.
This is why radio is Ruya’s passion. For her, radio is hope, joy, and ultimately, the story’s noble saviour.
