Sorry if I've posted this in the wrong place, but I couldn't really find an appropriate forum for this issue.
Basically, I'm having problems with the American distribution of my novel Warp. The US distributor that normally handles my publisher, MP Publishing/Macadam Cage, has point-blank refused to touch it because of the very controversial and blasphemous content, so it's not reaching book shelves in America and is selling very sluggishly via Amazon as an import.
One solution would be to rewrite it to tone down or remove the blasphemous sections, but neither I nor my editor wish to do that, so we've decided to place Warp with a different distributor.
Does anybody here know a good American distributor that likes left-field novels and isn't afraid of courting controversy?
