About Sanje

»Sanje is a publisher with a vision. Publishing is about revealing and promoting true values in life. Our books and music are there for reading, thinking, laughing, dreaming … changing the world. All the worlds.

Sanje means "dreams": a good book is a dream shared by many, open to all, a space where minds meet and communicate.

We are open to all the cultures, all the languages, and all the genres. We believe in fostering critical thinking, in sharing ideas accross boundaries of all kinds, in communicating through art where no other common ground can be found.

We also believe in a world where complex and multiple identities are an asset, not a drawback. There are no "small" languages, only small minds. There are no unimportant cultures, only ignorance of them. We believe that limits and borders are there to be crossed, that horizons are there to be opened, and books to be translated and shared by all.«
