Modern Gothic

Voce Books is a new independent bookshop for Birmingham, located at The Warehouse in Digbeth.

We stock fiction, translations, poetry, the most interesting titles on culture and politics, magazines, zines & a little bit of art.New books. New voices.We believe that the best books have their own unique character, their own specific and distinctive voice, hence our name, Voce: the Italian word for voice. With carefully curated shelves categorised by individual publisher and two experienced booksellers dedicated to recommending books that showcase the true breadth and diversity of the independent publishing landscape both at home and across the world, Voce Books is an entirely contemporary and inclusive book space, inspired by the new, the unusual and the unexpected.
