Located in Harvard Square, Cambridge, Massachusetts (USA), Fairbank Literary represents a wide range of clients, from first-time authors international bestsellers, from prize-winning journalists to professional and academic experts. Our tastes tend toward literary fiction and topical/narrative non-fiction, with a strong interest in women's voices, quality of life issues, class, race, war and its psychological effects, and the intersection of art and science.  We are most likely to take on works that are socially significant and newsworthy, and that speak to the human quest for meaning beyond mere escapism -- although we also enjoy a smartly conceived pop-audience book.

At present, we are actively seeking literary fiction, Latina/Latino works, biographies, one-subject narrative non-fiction, current events, history, art and architecture, food and wine, sports, science, and pop culture.
