NYRB Classics is a list of fiction and non-fiction works for all ages and from around the world.

Most of the books include an introduction by a writer or literary critic.

NYRB Collections is a series of books that collect essays by frequent contributors to The New York Review of Books. With works by writers such as Larry McMurtry, Frank Rich, Mary McCarthy, Freeman Dyson and others, NYRB Collections present treatments of major intellectual, political, scientific, and artistic developments and debates.
