The presentation that let's you know it's special



Some books are put together with such care that just the experience of opening up the covers is a pleasure in itself. Even before you read the words that have been printed with such care on the page.

That is the experience of picking up Stone in a Landslide published by Peirene. The book offers a great combination of simplicity but wonderful presentation. There are a few publishers making the effort to do this and it really does make a difference because you want to pick it up and get into it.

You know that what's inside is going to be special because those responsible for bringing it to life so clearly feel that.

Looking forward to reading Maria Barbal's Stone in a Landslide later this week.
