Nawfal Institute

Nawfal Institute (نوفل) is a Lebanese publishing house that operates as an imprint of Hachette Antoine, the Beirut-based publishing group. Its catalogue spans Arabic-language novels and short-story collections, thrillers, romance, poetry, classics, non-fiction, religion and spirituality, anthologies, history, politics, memoirs, and free writing. The publisher's website presents its list by category and highlights award-winning and notable titles, including Arabic fiction and translated works. The house is associated with the Lebanese book market and the wider Arab reading public, and it also reaches French-language audiences through its parent group. Its non-fiction list includes works on Middle Eastern history and politics, such as Kamal Salibi's 'The Bible came from Arabia' and titles on modern Egypt and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The Nawfal name is historically linked to Lebanese publishing, and the imprint continues to release new Arabic literature and non-fiction under the Hachette Antoine umbrella. As a brand, Nawfal Institute represents a curated literary and intellectual list rather than a single product. It publishes established and emerging Arab authors, and its titles have appeared on regional prize lists, including the International Prize for Arabic Fiction longlist. The website serves as a storefront and catalogue for readers in Lebanon and abroad.
