The Bookish Magazine is a collaborative publication by ALPJ & Sons and its partner creative teams, designed to celebrate the culture of reading and the people who bring stories to life. It is a modern literary magazine that balances the art of storytelling with the business and community of books — a space where readers, writers, publishers, and thinkers converge to explore the evolving world of literature.
Each issue curates a blend of features, interviews, reviews, and thought pieces that capture the full spectrum of the reading experience. From emerging voices and indie authors to established literary figures, The Bookish Magazine shines a light on the diverse stories that shape our world and the creative forces behind them. The magazine also examines the publishing industry’s trends, innovations, and challenges, offering insights for both passionate readers and professionals who live and work among books.
At its core, The Bookish Magazine champions balance — between creativity and commerce, inspiration and information, tradition and transformation. It values storytelling not only as an art form but also as an essential bridge between cultures, ideas, and generations. Each issue aims to nurture curiosity, encourage discovery, and foster a global community of readers who see books as both mirrors and windows into the human experience.
Published in both print and digital formats, The Bookish Magazine is crafted for those who believe that reading is more than a pastime — it is a way of seeing, learning, and connecting. With every issue, the magazine reaffirms its mission: to celebrate the written word while supporting the ecosystem that keeps it alive — authors, publishers, booksellers, and, above all, readers.
