Discover the first three titles in Lasting Echoes, a letterpress series celebrating short stories that endure. Printed on an Original Heidelberg Windmill Press on Cotton Lettra paper and limited to 100 unnumbered copies, each chapbook offers a timeless work chosen for its emotional resonance, moral clarity, and lasting power.
Each title in the collection is 8.5" × 5.5", wrapped in extra-thick German-made Gmund paper, and sewn by hand, a tactile, durable presentation that reflects the care and craft behind every story.
The first set of titles in the collection:
-
The Doll’s House by Katherine Mansfield: A beautifully subtle critique of class and childhood that reveals how innocence and cruelty can coexist in ordinary moments. Illustrated by Aubree Hoffmann, whose finely crafted digital artwork captures the story’s quiet emotional shifts and social nuance.
-
An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge by Ambrose Bierce: A masterful blend of tension, imagination, and psychological depth that reshapes the boundaries of the short story. Illustrated by Colin Estrada, who brings the story’s tension and atmosphere to life through expressive charcoal sketches.
-
Gusev by Anton Chekhov: A tender, dreamlike meditation on life and death, capturing Chekhov’s unmatched ability to find meaning in quiet, human moments. Illustrated by Blair Allen, whose bold linocut prints reflect the story’s stark beauty and haunting final imagery.
Each chapbook features original illustrations created exclusively for these editions, a collaboration that brings fresh artistic voices into dialogue with these timeless stories. We hope through this series to introduce new artists to the fine press world, giving them an early platform to showcase their work.
These three titles are offered together as a three-chapbook set, which includes a slipcase. Chapbooks are also available for individual purchase while supplies last.
The slipcase is specially designed to house any three chapbooks from the Lasting Echoes collection, so it can hold this set today and any combination you choose to build over time. It is also offered separately in for readers who wish to expand their collection.
Upcoming Lasting Echoes titles include short works by Brönte, Mann, Melville and more, with multiple titles already in development.
