Keswick House Publishers announces the release of The Last Good Fairy, by Celeste White: a story about living with uncertainty and loss, about redemption, about a scientist who follows an unconventional path in her search for healing and the artist who helps her.
This particular edition of The Last Good Fairy has been published in homage to and celebration of the book form. Although it’s a novel, it’s published as a work of art—a sumptuous limited collectors’ edition in honor of all the books that have delighted us throughout our lives. The production combines artwork with literature to create a unique and playful book that symbolizes the author’s love of the book form and serves as a reminder that literature is indeed an art form of enduring value.
Fine books and gift books provide years or even decades of pleasure whenever we pick them up now and again to savor their binding, pages, and content, reminding us, however subtly, of the profound gifts that books offer mankind. Celeste’s aim in producing this book is to enchant and inspire the reader, evoking whatever magic they might have felt when they were first introduced to a fine, lovingly crafted book and the tempting journey of heart and mind that it promised.
Stinehour Press, an award-winning printer in Vermont, printed the books; New Hampshire Bindery, an award-winning binder, bound them. The book has no jacket but is stamped in gold, and the spine of each book is hand-decorated by the author/artist with semi-precious stones, pearls, charms, and/or dichroic glass. Each book is one of a kind.
Treat yourself to one of these unique and beautiful books or give one as a gift to your favorite book-lover.
