Henningham Family Press are delighted to announce the crowdfunding has begun for two new novels from Paul Griffiths (author of Mr. Beethoven and The Tomb Guardians)! 

First up is a 15th anniversary edition of his seminal novel, 'let me tell you', where Ophelia tells her own story, but is limited to the vocabulary Shakespeare gives to her in Hamlet. It is a subtle limit, but it expresses both her right to tell her own story and the constraints placed upon her as a woman. We also publish a brand new sequel called 'Let Me Go On', in which "O" meets others on a similar path and explores a fabulous new world.

“Paul Griffiths is one of a handful of fine writers to find the secret passage leading from restriction to richness." - Adam Mars-Jones, author of Box Hill

For lovers of the handmade, there is an exquisite twin Artists' Book edition planned in a dos-à-dos binding! The paperbacks will be bound in a bespoke two-tone green paper we are making with G.F Smith, foil debossed in gold!
