Great post on some of the best publishers in English right now. Are you familiar with Adelphi Edizioni from Italy? They also have extremely distinct covers (similar to Fitzcarraldo actually but the color changes with every book). The head of Adelphi, Roberto Calasso, has a fantastic book called “The Art of the Publisher” which gets at similar ideas as in your post. It’s available in English.
For your UK readers, I can highly recommend Peirene Press - translated works that can be bought individually or subscription. This month’s read is a translation from the Montenegrin 💫
