Letters from Century Press RSS

When I first read The Great Gatsby in my high school English class, the story was so fantastical that I couldn't imagine that it described a real place.

When our last letter left off, we were left at a crossroads. What to do about re-printing (or not reprinting) an inflammatory word?

When I started Century Press I knew that one of my key jobs would be faithfully transcribing the original text of classic novels. What I didn’t expect was that this process was not very straightforward.

One key choice that truly differentiates Century Press from most every other publisher out there is our insistence on letterpress printing.

It's been a big day here at Century Press! After months of planning and discussion, I finally received the prototype of The Great Gatsby.
