Big Day is a new imprint from 4th Estate and Elizabeth Day.
We are dedicated to publishing extraordinary stories that illuminate what it means to be human. We champion bold voices across fiction and non-fiction – writers who dare to ask big questions, to tell the truth with heart and, in doing so, connect us all through the power of story. Whether personal or universal, intimate or expansive, every book we publish is chosen for its ability to move, challenge and inspire.
At Big Day, we believe that every story has the potential to change how we see ourselves – and the world around us.
‘Books are my lifelong passion – reading them, writing them and championing them. So I’m thrilled to be embarking on this new venture with the dream team at 4th Estate in order to publish the bold, new, compelling stories that need to be told. BIG DAY is a place where raw authenticity and glorious imperfection are celebrated. We want our books to be in constant dialogue with the reader – because we understand that what connects us is bigger and more powerful than what divides us. I can’t wait to get started.’Elizabeth Day
