The Free Kerlian Press is an underground publishing company based in Kerlile, which produces books and other texts written by Kerlian dissidents. The Free Kerlian Press continues to operate, despite being outlawed by the Council of Kerlile, and is believed to have ties with a number of legal publishing companies in foreign states. All books published by the Free Kerlian Press are automatically banned by the Kerlian Censorship Board.
History[edit | edit source]
The Free Kerlian Press began in 1960 following the closure of borders in Kerlile, making it even more difficult for Kerlians to access books published abroad. A group of dissidents began an underground publishing operation out of a shed, which steadily grew as demand for uncensored information grew. Due to the nature of the group, they must frequently move their operations to different locations, making it difficult.
Works[edit | edit source]
One of their most notable works is the highly controversial Gynarchy, and the Unmaking of a Dream by Tamara Rivers, who was sentenced to execution following five years in the Restricted Region for the publication of the book.
