A closer look at the Roman Numeral edition of POE. Only 5 copies in Hewitt’s full black chieftain goatskin, hand stamped foil titles, sculpted head caps in teal blue and letterpress printed labels. All this housed in a clamshell box with the letterpress-printed edition of Usher. This was bound by the wonderful whose work is absolutely impeccable. The beautiful hand-marbled paper which lines the solander and is mirrored on Usher and the endpapers for Poe are by Rachel . Labels and Usher were of course printed by the peerless . It takes an incredible amount of craftsmanship, dedication and creativity to bring these projects to completion, and it is without doubt a team effort. Huge respect for the people we work, thank you everyone!

We are delighted to announce that next year we will be publishing a fine press edition of DRACULA by Bram Stoker.

Since childhood my parents took me once a year, every year to Whitby and Robin Hood’s Bay on the Yorkshire Coast, a tradition that has continued now with my family. Whitby Abbey, the Demeter shipwrecked upon the shoreline, and the black hound leaping from the boat to run up the 199 steps to the Abbey, Lucy’s nocturnal wanderings, the coastal graveyard are all inspired by this place which is something of a spiritual home to me. When we established Nepēnthé Press it was always our intention to produce the definitive fine-press edition of this Gothic Classic which I know so intimately, and next year, that is what we will set out to do.

There have been many editions of this most famous Vampire tale, but for me it has never been done justice. It is literally dripping in sublime, haunting imagery and infused with the power of a feverish nightmare and there was only one artist, I felt could capture this atmosphere of deep weirdness and ancient horror…. Santiago Caruso.

Caruso is arguably the greatest symbolist painter of the weird and occult working today. He has illustration credits include; Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë for The Folio Society, The Master’s of the Weird Tale: Robert W Chambers for Centipede Press, The Works of H P Lovecraft, the cover art for the BFI edition of PAN’S LABYRINTH, directed by Guillermo Del Toro, as well as cover art for books by Clive Barker, Neil Gaiman, John Langan, Ramsey Campbell, Caitlín Kiernan, Ambrose Bierce and many others.

The book will also contain pen and ink artwork by Elijah John in the form of letterpress printed chapter headers and vignettes, and designs with full colour plates by Santiago Caruso.
