Shirley Jackson, We Have Always Lived in the Castle. London: The Folio Society, 2023.
Limited edition, hand-number 67 of 500 numbered copies and 20 lettered copies Hors de Commerce. Signed on a tipped-in limitation by both Donna Tart and Angie Hoffmeister.
Introduced by Donna Tart, illustrated by Angie Hoffmeister. 222 × 144 × 26 mm. Type: Arno with Zachar for display. Printed on Abbey Wove paper and bound by Graphicom in full light blue cloth with an illustration by Hoffmeister; illustrated endpapers. Loosely inserted is a colour print with a further illustration contained in a protective light blue paper wallet. Beautiful clamshell box bound in paper illustrated by Hoffmeister. In addition to the several colour plates (some of them double spreads), Hoffmeister contributed tail-pieces for the chapters.
Near-fine book with pages tightly bound and free of any inscriptions, with only a small crease to foot of spine. Acommpanied by a fine print. All contained in a fine clamshell box. A lovely edition of this unsettling novel about a perverse, isolated, and possibly murderous family and the struggle that ensues when a cousin arrives at their estate.
