Friends of Folly: Supporting New Zealand’s Most Provocative Literary Journal

Become a Friend of Folly and support the international literary journal that’s taking New Zealand to the world.

We’re New Zealand’s fastest-selling literary journal, winner of the Next Generation Indie Book Awards 2025, and representing New Zealand at the Frankfurt Book Fair. Folly is home to writing that is bold, beautiful, unapologetically intelligent—and proudly provocative.

Why join?

Because literature doesn’t fund itself. Folly exists at the intersection of art and commerce: we publish exceptional writing, host legendary parties and pay our production team. Your membership helps us keep print alive, sustain our independence, and moves us towards a viable future where we and our artists actually get paid.

Friends of Folly isn’t about solemn book clubs. It’s about a community of people who love art, wild parties and champagne in equal measure. People who understand that culture thrives when it’s fun, and a little bit glamorous.

As a Friend of Folly, you’ll get:

  • Three free copies of Folly, to keep and to gift

  • First access to our annual launch party and insider events

  • Quarterly Folly postcards and literary surprises in your mailbox

  • Your name immortalised in Folly 004

  • The satisfaction of knowing you’re part of an international literary movement

Join the rebellion. Support literature that refuses to be boring.
