The Wish Ledger
The books the world is waiting for.
A public list of spiritual and religious books people wish existed in their language. Adding a wish costs nothing and promises nothing. It makes the need visible, to us and to every publisher and rights-holder who passes through.
1
Add a wish
Name the book, the language you long to read it in, and if you like, why it matters to you.
2
We add it by hand
New wishes arrive by email and join the ledger after a quick human review. Curated, not automated.
3
Demand becomes visible
When wishes cluster around a title or a language, that's a signal: to us about what to serve next, and to rights-holders that an audience is waiting.
The ledger
We seeded the ledger with titles from our own communities to get it started, and they're marked accordingly. The rest of the page belongs to you.
