Back in 2019, I told my UEA tutor that Malachi Whitaker's And So Did I was one of the books I most wanted to reissue if I ever had a chance. And six years later, with the help of Valerie Waterhouse, Catherine Taylor, and @bhousepress.bsky.social, we have. (One reason to be cheerful today.)

“And So Did I is an engrossing, often moving, beautifully written and contemplative work.” @kaggsy59.bsky.social offers an enthusiastic assessment of Malachi Whitaker's unique memoir, out today in the Recovered Books series from Boiler House Press. Available in the US from @asterismbooks.bsky.social

Available tomorrow, 30 September, from the Recovered Books series from Boiler House Press: @malachiwhitaker.bsky.social's unique memoir, And So Did I, recovered with the help of @neglectedbooks.com, Valerie Waterhouse, and Catherine Taylor.

I think Malachi Whitaker's (@malachiwhitaker.bsky.social) And So Did I has finally found its time and its readers. In 1939, and even when Carcanet reissued it in the 1980s, its "not any one thing-ness" was really held against it. Available to pre-order now from @bhousepress.bsky.social.

“We tend to narrow the field down to what we call 'the canon', and the corollary to having a canon of writers, like Virginia Woolf and James Joyce, is that the other writers become neglected." On the Recovered Books series from @bhousepress.bsky.social: stories.uea.ac.uk/recovered-bo...

SOLITARY CONFINEMENT, coming 31st March 2025… Back in print after over 40 years thanks to @neglectedbooks.com, Solitary Confinement has quietly developed a reputation as a modern masterpiece of contemplative literature. Pre-order your copy here: www.boilerhouse.press/product-page...

Excited for this!

👀

On this date in 2019, I wrote about Gertrude Trevelyan's As It Was in the Beginning, which one reviewer called "almost unreadable in its intensity." Trevelyan's most stylistically daring novel is now in print again from @bhousepress.bsky.social neglectedbooks.com/?...

👀 www.boilerhouse.press/product-page...

Without a marketing budget or bands of loyal podcasters, the Recovered Books series from @bhousepress.bsky.social relies on word of mouth recommendations. So it's neat to see little chain reactions reflected in our sales numbers. Lately, this very odd 1960s teen horror story seems to be taking off.

On this date in 2019, I wrote about William's Wife by GertrudeTrevelyan (1938). I found it as riveting and horrifying as watching a car crash.... When I set the book down, I felt as if all the air has been sucked from my lungs. And now it's back in print from @bhousepress! neglectedbooks.com/?...

Happening today!!

Just a note that three of Gertrude Trevelyan's novels have been reissued in the Recovered Books series from @bhousepress.bsky.social, with a fourth, Trance by Appointment, coming out in May. www.boilerhouse.press/recovered-bo...
