A 2009 Folio Society edition of Iris Murdoch’s Booker Prize Winning novel, The Sea The Sea. It is a tale of the strange obsessions that haunt a self satisfied playwright and director as he begins to write his memoirs. The book is introduced by John Sutherland with illustrations by Tatsuro Kiuchi.
Binding suggestions: A deep blue leather for the jacket with gold and white images on the front and spine would stay true to this edition’s style. However, the full colour illustrations within the book draw out other colour palettes, with natural shades of blue, green, tan, white and terracotta, all of which would look beautiful on the jacket. Add marbled end papers in white, blue, and gold – and which look like oil on water - and you have a personalised book and slipcase inspired by the seaside landscape.
