Creek Books is a community-focused bookstall curated for the radical, diverse, and vibrant culture of South East London. Our lists spotlight local authors, independent publishers and voices too often pushed to the margins, especially Black, LGBTQIA+, migrant, and working-class writers.


Rooted in the spirit of South London - bold, warm, and iconoclastic - these collections reflect the values of resistance, identity, community, and care.


Explore below to discover books that speak to the place and people we love.
