Who We Are
Born from a passion for the enduring power of stories, Silbermund was founded as a family business with a clear mission: to discover and publish exceptional narratives.
We believe that a great book is a timeless object – a source of wisdom, comfort, and connection. In an era of fleeting digital content, we champion the tangible and the meaningful.
Our catalog, which encompasses literary fiction, insightful guidebooks, and enchanting children's literature, is a testament to this belief.
Every title is carefully selected, beautifully designed, and reflects a European tradition of quality and thoughtfulness.
The Boss
As a woman, you are challenged to be there for your family while simultaneously balancing multiple professions and bringing everything into harmony. Sometimes, you simply have to accept that certain projects will not progress at the speed you originally envisioned.
Realizing that there is always a way to make it happen has given me profound strength. There are situations where you must defend your loved ones like a solitary bear. The fact is: you must never give up.
My strong will has always been a faithful companion on this journey, for even when the path to my goal took longer than expected, I always arrived in the end.
It is my deepest wish that our books leave a meaningful mark, bring joy, inspire reflection, and offer hope – if they do, then a part of my mission is fulfilled.
