Introducing the VMC hardback designer collection!
Posted by Donna Coonan in Book News, Cover Launches
Feast your eyes on these beauties! The second VMC designer hardback collection, available in all good bookshops, £12.99 each.
Titles include:
Good Behaviour by Molly Keane Cover design by Eley Kishimoto
The Dud Avocado by Elaine Dundy Cover design by Lucienne Day
The Tortoise and the Hare by Elizabeth Jenkins Cover design by Florence Broadhurst
The Enchanted April by Elizabeth von Arnim Cover design by Angie Lewin for Liberty
My Cousin Rachel by Daphne du Maurier Cover design by Neisha Crosland
From today's Guardian: 'There's no question, of course, that the words are the thing – but when the medium and the message combine as attractively as they do here, what's not to celebrate?'
The collection has also featured in Vogue: 'Beautifully rendered in patterned textiles by contemporary designers including Eley Kishimoto and Angie Lewin, as well as vintage designs by Lucienne Day, the charmingly retro graphics are so delicious we want to own them all.'
And in the Observer's 'Lust List'.

These are right up my street ! I love classic books and vintage fabrics
These look great! But I've read – elsewhere – that they are adaptations rather than the originals. Is this right?
No, I'm glad to say they are each the whole, unadulterated, original book.
Fabulous news! I'll definitely be purchasing – ostensibly as gifts ….
I saw a copy of this edition of The Enchanted April in Waterstone's on Saturday and was really excited! I have a complete set of the original eight and cannot wait to add these to them! Please please continue to produce these beautiful editions of such wonderful works!
What a lovely comment! I'm so glad you like them, and yes, we are hoping to add a few more titles every few years.
