Katounia Press

Katounia Press is a new, independent venture set up to publish works of an academic, fiction or journalistic nature.

Its next title, coming in January 2025, is Being There Too: Travel Diaries 1990-2010.  This is a follow up to  Being There: Travel Diaries 1970s-1980s. Both are fascinating travel memoirs by Jean and John Dillon, and explore the freedom of travel before the digital age.

Katounia’s first title, The Lockdown Papers, came out just in time for the anniversary of the 2020 Covid19 lockdown, and delivers a collection of essays and articles published in the media by author and academic John Dillon over five decades. It has been described by John Bruton as, “a witty and well written book”.
