Overview

Grove Atlantic is an independent literary publisher. Its official site lists the imprints Grove Hardcover, Grove Paperback, Atlantic Monthly Press, Black Cat, and Roxane Gay Books, and presents a timeline titled "A Century of Publishing Excellence" covering the founding of the Atlantic Monthly Press in Boston and of Grove Press on Grove Street in New York's Greenwich Village.

History

Grove Atlantic's official timeline, titled "A Century of Publishing Excellence," states that the Atlantic Monthly Press was founded in Boston (as legend has it, at the bar of the Parker House Hotel) and became the book publishing imprint of the Atlantic Monthly magazine. It records that in 1932 the Atlantic Monthly Press became an imprint of Little, Brown, and that Grove Press was founded on Grove Street in New York's Greenwich Village in 1947. According to the timeline, twenty-eight-year-old Barney Rosset, Jr., bought Grove Press for $3,000 in 1951 and turned it into one of the most influential publishers of the 1950s, '60s, and '70s. The timeline also records that Black Cat was created in 1960 as the mass-market paperback imprint of Grove Press.
