6/1/2023 0 Comments High Wages by Dorothy Whipple![]() ![]() ![]() I wanted to support the press, avoid Amazon taking a slice of their profit, and avoid waiting for books (a bit expensively and slowly for overseas shipping) to come to me. I found out recently that Persephone is making a small number of their books available as ebooks that you can buy directly from their website (or from Amazon, but I preferred that all my money go to Persephone – I’m guessing Persephone can’t sell kindle-formatted books directly to customers per an agreement with Amazon). Rachel at Book Snob has said that Dorothy Whipple is their greatest find – the best, least well-known writer they publish. Persephone is a small press specializing in publishing out of print books of great quality, particularly by women (and, perhaps, British authors – I’m not sure this is a requirement, but many of them appear to be). My favorite book blogger, Book Snob, has been raving about Persephone Books Press in London for awhile (if you happen to be in London, they have a storefront where you can buy books – heaven!). ![]()
