Letters from Century Press RSS

I wouldn’t advise anyone to judge a book by its cover, but by all means, you should feel free to judge it by how its constructed.

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.
