Persephone Books
In case you hadn’t noticed, we love good literature. We love books. And we love recommending them too. One of our new favorite publishers is Persephone Books out of the UK. They reprint “neglected novels, diaries, short stories and cookery books, mostly by women and mostly dating from the early to mid-twentieth century.” Not only do they hunt up these under-appreciated books and make the available again they publish them in “elegant grey paperbacks with patterned endpapers and [with] matching bookmarks inside.”
They are available for purchase at their website and at Amazon.
Some of our favorites are Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day and How to Run Your Home Without Help.
