There is no such thing for Linux - proprietary file formats strike once 
again :(

There are three choices:

- - get someone else with Publisher to export the file in a universal 
format (eg PDF);

- - wait for OpenOffice.org or StarOffice to implement a filter (it's a 
frequently requested wish);

- - have a fireside chat with the author of Scribus, who is slowly but 
surely building up a nice DTP application:
