Goose Lane Editions

Goose Lane Editions is a Canadian book publishing company.

History
Goose Lane Editions was founded in 1954 in Fredericton, New Brunswick as Fiddlehead Poetry Books by Fred Cogswell and a group of students and faculty from the University of New Brunswick. After Cogswell retired in 1981, his successor, Peter Thomas, changed the name to Goose Lane Editions. From 1989 to 1997 Douglas Lochhead was president of Goose Lane. It is now headed by publisher and co-owner Susanne Alexander. The Canada Council for the Arts says the publishing company "has evolved to become one of Canada's most exciting showcases of home-grown literary talent."

Publications from Goose Lane Editions include literary fiction, poetry, cookbooks, and guide books, as well as fine art volumes for museums and galleries. Authors published by Goose Lane include Alden Nowlan, Nancy Bauer, Herb Curtis, Reg Balch, Lynn Coady, Alan Cumyn, Sheree Fitch, and Douglas Glover whose novel Elle won the 2003 Governor General's Award for English-language fiction.

The company's imprint, BTC Audiobooks, is Canada's leading provider of Canadian literary fiction in audio book format.
