slemslempike | Persephone books

I missed this in the Biannually, so I figured some of you may well have done so too. And if you're in London you could go to their party on Thursday and make me very jealous. But! We can ALL of us benefit from their 3 for 2 offer online. Except those of us who are not meant to be buying books. Although maybe those of us who are not meant to be buying books could make an exception because they are PERSEPHONE books, and it is really like saving money to get one FREE, even if there are at least five beautiful grey-jacketed in your not-yet-read pile, it doesn't ever hurt to have more Persephone books.

Anyway: tenth birthday celebrations and online offer for Persephone:

This year is our tenth birthday and we are celebrating on Thursday (18th June). We invited you, in the last Biannually, to a party in Lamb's Conduit Street to mark the occasion, but want to remind you again by email: all are welcome and we will be serving champagne and cups of tea all day plus cheese scones for elevenses, salads for lunch, brownies and cup cakes for tea and canapés for the evening.

Also, for this week only there is a special offer of three books for the price of two ie if you buy two books you may have a third free of charge. This applies in the shop on Thursday only but on the website all this week. (The offer also applies to readers abroad, although the third book will be sent surface mail even if the other two are sent airmail.) If you would like to take up this special offer on the internet please order and pay for two books as usual, but write ‘free book please' and the title of the third book you would like in the Additional Info box on the website.
