It publishes books under the imprints of, Carlton Books, Goodman Books, André Deutsch and Prion. Originally known as Goodman Books after its creator and still-serving Publisher and Chairman Jonathan Goodman, the company quickly partnered with leading London media group Carlton Communications to act as the group's publishing arm, and took the name Carlton Books. After some years, Carlton Books closed its formal ties to Carlton Communication, but kept the name. The current name reflects the company's acquisition of several other London-based publishers.

    While you continue to grow fatter and richer publishing your nauseating confectionery, I shall become a mole, digging here, rooting there, stirring up the whole rotten mess where life is hard, raw and ugly.
