"Shakespeare’s Sonnets are the greatest single work of lyric poetry in English, and many individual poems are as powerful as those in any language. Yet they are scarcely read, except for the few that are regularly anthologized. This is not necessarily surprising. To be confronted with 154 sonnets is a considerable challenge, especially if the poems are as complex as any work written by Shakespeare. The effort, however, is more than simply rewarding, because the sequence consists of love poetry that is as passionate, intimate, daring, searing and lyrical as any that we may ever encounter."

Neil L. Rudenstine

This volume is a collection of seven classic myths and fairy tales on the theme of love. The Tower of Love includes stories such as The Night Fisherman and the Mermaid (Indonesia), The Three Daughters (Kazakhstan), and Beauty and the Beast (France), among others. Gathered from around the world and imaginatively retold by Bill Gordh and illustrator John Hutton, The Tower of Love breathes new magic into old stories.

William F. Buckley, Jr. once said, “One doesn’t read Jane Austen; one re-reads Jane Austen.” It is this sentiment that explains why, more than two hundred years after its publication, Pride and Prejudice is one of the most beloved books in the world. Austen herself called the novel her “own darling child,” and it is with that heartfelt sentiment that Thornwillow Press announces the publication of a very special edition of this timeless novel, one that would have fit perfectly on Austen’s own bookshelf. Using the same time-tested craftsmanship, techniques and style of the early Victorian period, the leather and cloth bindings on this edition will be historically accurate greens and, most fitting, the boards will be a replica of the wallpaper in Austen’s own home.
