And Other Stories was set up in 2009 by Stefan Tobler. Its first book, Down the Rabbit Hole by Juan Pablo Villalobos (translated by Rosalind Harvey), was chosen by the public to be one of the ten titles longlisted for the 2011 Guardian First Book Award. It went on to make the shortlist and was shortlisted for the Oxford-Weidenfeld Translation Prize. Deborah Levy's Swimming Home was shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize 2012, as well as UK Author of the Year at the Specsavers National Book Awards 2012. and the Jewish Quarterly-Wingate Prize 2013. And Other Stories was nominated for and subsequently won Publisher of the Year in the 2011 3:AM Magazine Awards. Following Kamila Shamsie's 2015 call for publishers to address gender disparity in book prizes, And Other Stories was the only press to answer her by publishing only women throughout 2018. This included then unpublished work from cult writer Ann Quin, titled The Unmapped Country: Stories and Fragments. A resurgence of popularity for the obscure "writer from the front rank of Britain's literary avant-garde" continued with a reprinting of her complete catalogue by And Other Stories, including Berg (2019), Three (2020), and Tripticks (2022). Award listings continued throughout and beyond the pandemic. Phenotypes by Paulo Scott was longlisted for the 2022 International Booker Prize, and it won And Other Stories the Jabuti Prize for best foreign publication of a Brazilian book in 2023. Also in 2023, And Other Stories published Eva Baltasar's Boulder, which was shortlisted for the International Booker Prize, while the publisher's first poetry collection, Pitch & Glint by Lutz Seiler, was the Poetry Book Society's Translation Choice in Autumn. Several And Other Stories publications from 2024 were shortlisted for awards, including Praiseworthy by Alexis Wright. In Australia, it won the Stella Prize and the Miles Franklin Award, and in the UK the James Tait Black Prize. In 2025, the company continued to publish poetry collections, and Heart Lamp by Banu Mushtaq marked a number of firsts with its International Booker Prize Win: it is the first short story collection to win, and the first Kannada-language work shortlisted. Translator Deepa Bhasthi is also the first winning translator from the Global Majority. The 2026 International Booker Prize winner was Taiwan Travelogue by Yáng Shuāng-zǐ, translated from Mandarin Chinese by Lin King, published in the UK by And Other Stories.
