The IN HER GENIUS press

Empowering Women’s Voices Through Transformative Art and Storytelling.

a Boutique press
launched in August 2023, based in East London

 

IN HER GENIUS is a publishing project that celebrates women’s literary and artistic works rooted in authentic expression and spiritual insight.

We focus on books and other creative forms that reflect true selves and unique genius, pushing the boundaries of traditional genres.

Our collaboration includes established, emerging, and overlooked women artists and authors who embody feminine brilliance and drive transformative change.

EXCLUSIVELY publishing the works of the last Italian Shaman of matrilineal descent.

Discover the ancient roots of Italian shamanism and the profound legacy of women as healers, priestesses, and guardians of sacred knowledge across the ages. From healers in Egypt, blessed by the Goddess Isis, to the Italian priestesses who once channelled her gifts, women have long held transformative roles as midwives, herbalists, and spiritual guides. In ancient Italy, worshipping deities like Isis and native goddesses empowered these women, intertwining their practices with the sacred rhythms of nature and community. Uncover how this heritage has shaped and enriched Italy’s mystical landscape today.

SUSTAINABILITY MANIFESTO

Starting in 2025, we commit to a twice-yearly print cycle to reduce paper waste and honour our environment. Books will be available for preorder through our shop, with printing and dispatch occurring only in March and September. This approach ensures that each book finds its way to readers who truly value it.

Much of the artwork we sell, created by our talented artists, is done digitally for the same reason: minimising our ecological footprint. We also prioritise printing on recycled paper whenever possible, and occasionally, limited additional copies may be available at our pop-up events.

Through these mindful choices, we aim to create lasting work that respects both our readers and the world we share.

What We’re Working On (2024-2025)

 

ESSENCE

A unique part memoir, part guidebook on the power of smell.

THE CHRONICLES OF MIA

It’s a series of five manga-style books written and illustrated by Michela Chiarelli and Tiziana Ghiggia. The books chronicle, in bullet journal form, the discoveries and learning journey of Mia, a young priestess in the making.

The series is inspired by Italian folklore and Ancient Magic Traditions and has elements of coming-of-age fiction. However, it is primarily focused on the quest for self-empowerment through otherworldly realms.

The books are matter-of-fact manuals for developing one’s consciousness, personal power and magic.
