The particular focus of our first three books, published in handmade limited editions, is that of overt sensuality in Clare's poetry, revealed through both his knowledge and understanding of other poets, such as the Roman poet Ovid, and through his own undoubted experience of love and sexuality, especially with the women in his life. These books are:
The Lovers Meeting (2013)
The Poet in Love (2014) &
In the Shadows (2015).
In all aspects of production a handmade book is conceived and planned as a work of art, as well as a conveyor of knowledge. The content, the images, the text, the papers, the cover materials, the style of binding are all intended primarily to enhance and add to the experience of discovering more about Clare's work.
The second and continuing publishing effort is to produce high quality paperback volumes at an affordable price. There are two aspects to this work. The first is to publish Clare texts are are either unpublished or little known. To date there are two of these:
Hidden Treasures (2016) &
Memoirs of Uncle Barnaby (2017).
