Bunny Quote du Jour: Paul Smith

"Why don't you treat yourself to a new read? I'm a fan of Persephone Books, with their wonderfully spring-like floral jackets."
-Paul Smith in the Diana Vreeland-esque Why Don't You...? final page of the au courant U.K. Harper's Bazaar

In their own words:

"Persephone prints mainly neglected fiction and non-fiction by women, for women and about women. The titles are chosen to appeal to busy women who rarely have time to spend in ever-larger bookshops and who would like to have access to a list of books designed to be neither too literary nor too commercial. The books are guaranteed to be readable, thought-provoking and impossible to forget. We sell mainly through mail order, through selected shops and we have our own shop.

Our titles include novels, short stories, diaries and cookery books. They are all carefully designed with a clear typeface, a dove-grey jacket, a 'fabric' endpaper and bookmark, and a preface by writers such as Jilly Cooper, Adam Gopnik, and Jacqueline Wilson."
