In love with this new edition of Woman Alive by Susan Ertz - rediscovered and republished by @manderleypress.bsky.social
Written in the 1930s, it's the story of the last woman left in a world of men in an imagined 1985

“I’m not extraordinary, it’s the things that happen to me that are extraordinary!”
- Helene Hanff
I cannot wait for our brand new “extraordinary” edition of Helene’s autobiography Underfoot in Show Business. Not long now!
#booksky #helenehanff
This book was inspired by real events - the rescue of a prize dairy cow (Venus) from under the noses of Nazi occupiers, all set on the remote Channel Island of Sark. Appointment with Venus - bonkers but brilliant!

Have you ever wondered what a hardback book looks like without pages!? Here are our two latest titles, book n@ked, so to speak! #booksky #publishing
We’ve so enjoyed bringing Underfoot in Show Business back into print - and can’t get Oklahoma! out of our heads now!
It really is! I wonder if it’s time for a new adaptation for screen?!?
We’ve rediscovered a long out of print book by Helene Hanff - Underfoot in Show Business. To celebrate our new edition we have found a few vintage copies of the title that made Hanff a literary sensation! Of course - 84 Charing Cross Road

Thank you! We are over the moon (!) with this design by Alice Pattullo (who is also a northerner) - it tells the story of the book inside!
“The Moon Is Making is superior in technical skill and dramatic power. Miss Jameson is a writer worth watching…”
