Title: About the Heritage Press Edition
Review: The Heritage Press Brave New World is one of their most successful and integrated book designs.Cataloguers sometimes report that it is bound in leather, but the glossy orange-red with black and silver details is actually vinyl. Illustrated with gravures by Mara McAfee, including a little helicopter which is repeated as a design motif, the book has ample margins and is printed in Palatino with Chisel chapter numbers and stick-up initials. In a black slipcase. For me, the total effect is a book that veers far away from the futuristic -- it is something modern yet familiar.Introduction by Ashley Montagu.
