Alexandra Press

Alexandra Press is an innovative, independent publisher of English and Japanese books and magazines produced by and for the international community here in Japan.

Located in Tokyo, Alexandra Press was originally established in 2001 by Caroline Pover to publish her best-selling book, Being A Broad in Japan. To the surprise of many mainstream publishers, Alexandra Press succeeded in breaking into the complex Japanese distribution system and has since gone on to publish books for individuals, organizations, and corporations.

Publishing on behalf of community groups such as the American Chamber of Commerce in Japan, Tokyo English Life Line, and Tokyo American Club’s Women’s Group; Alexandra Press books aim to support the foreign community in Japan, and are often created as fundraisers for charitable activities.

Caroline Pover regularly holds publishing seminars for those interested in various aspects of the publishing industry, and is also available on an individual consulting basis. Our team is available to work with authors and publishers every step of the way to ensure that the final product is something you can be proud to put your name on. We believe in helping people reach their full potential.

In line with our commitment to helping people achieve their dreams, we have operated a successful publishing internship program since 2002, and take pleasure in knowing that so many of our interns have gone on to great success in the publishing industry.

Current projects include the Japanese edition of the Guide to International Schools in Japan, the Ask Caroline series for Japanese women and their foreign women language teachers, and a collection of short stories by foreign women in Japan.

We have our hands full right now so are not currently seeking new authors. However, our door is always open to individuals and organizations with unique ideas and a desire to be a part of the publishing process. Whether you are seeking some advice, a project manager, an internship opportunity, or are looking to self-publish, we would love to hear from you!
