Europa Editions was founded in 2005 by Sandro Ferri and Sandra Ozzola Ferri of Rome-based Edizioni E/O, one of Europe’s most prestigious independent publishing houses. Their idea, - according to the publisher website presentation - "was to capitalize on Edizioni E/O’s decades-long experience to bring fresh voices to the American market and provide quality English editions enlisting some of the best translators in the business. Their appearance would be distinct, incorporating both European and U.S. jacket design standards. Their publishing endeavor would be as much a cultural enterprise as a business venture, convinced, as they are, that dialogue between nations and cultures has never been more important than now, and that this exchange is facilitated by literature chosen not only for its ability to entertain and fascinate, but also to inform and enlighten. To this end, Sandro and Sandra were joined by veteran publisher Kent Carroll, formerly editor-in-chief at Grove Press and founder-publisher at Carroll & Graf."
