Talonbooks is an independent publisher of Canadian literature based in Vancouver, British Columbia.
Its repertoire features authors writing in the literary genres of poetry, fiction and drama, as well as non-fiction books in the fields of ethnography, environmental and social issues, cultural studies, and literary criticism.
Talon later joined with a small local press called Very Stone House and published its first string of poetry books in 1967.
The association with Very Stone House ended a year later, and the Talonbooks imprint started appearing by itself.
Its editorial focus began shifting gradually more toward drama until that became the company's area of specialization.
