About Publisher

Mahrousa was founded by Faried Zahran in 1986, as an independent publishing house, research and information center. Mahrousa’s three pillars are:

1- Understanding and criticizing the norms, while encountering political, religious or ethical authoritarianism.

2- Looking forward to the dilemmas of the newness and the future, while reintroducing history materialistically.

3- Provoking repetition and isolation, adopting science and philosophy as collective sanctuary to humanity, and introducing literature and art as an individualistic phenomena of transcendence.

Through 3 decades, Mahrousa released more than 1000 titles, introduced tens of pioneer writers and many literate groups. In addition to releasing hundreds of titles that cover the realms of politics, socio-economics, religious and mythology. Recently Mahrousa is focused on engaging with science, philosophy and comics, in addition to keenly translating 30 titles a year from worldwide acclaimed cult literature and fiction.
