Early Autumn 🤍
By: Louis Bromfield
“TRULY LOVELY” —Gillian Flynn, author of Gone Girl
“For generations, the proud Pentland family name meant wealth, class, and status. In the years following the first World War, however, change was in the air, with numerous nouveaux-riches pretenders challenging the privileged family’s position as an arbiter of values and class.
Strong-willed Olivia Pentland—wife of Anson, the cold and distant heir to the family fortune—endures a tedious life largely devoid of joy or passion. Trapped in a stifling marriage, Olivia must examine her conscience and choose between the sudden thrill and lure of new love and the heavy tug of traditional family duty.
An extravagant debutante party at the Pentland estate for next-generation Sybil and Sabine opens a dramatic window into the façade the family maintains and becomes a catalyst for fracturing the perquisites they’ve all grown accustomed to. In the weeks that follow, relationships are tested, decorum and privilege challenged, and several carefully guarded family secrets unearthed in a cascading series of events which irrevocably upends their lives.
Winner of the 1927 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, Louis Bromfield’s witty and satirical epic evokes a keen insight into human nature and a powerful appreciation of the natural world. In unmasking the rigid and puritanical, class-based New England mores as the veneer to a lifestyle with little meaning, Bromfield sets the stage for a wholly new social contract. A reading of Early Autumn is an indelible experience you won’t want to miss.”

The Hermetica
Available for preorder ✨
By: Timothy Freke & Peter Gandy
“Serving as a theological basis for major world religions such as Christianity and Islam, the Hermetica has had an influence on Western culture that cannot be overstated. The collection of Greek texts—attributed by some to the legendary Hellenistic god Hermes Trismegistus (literally, Hermes the thrice great) in second-century Alexandria—is said to represent the divine philosophical and mystical practices of the pharaohs of Ancient Egypt (around 3000 BCE).”

JOIN IN THE FINAL ADVENTURES OF THE WISE CHILD, JUNIPER AND COLMAN! 👏🏻✨
By: Monica Furlong /Foreword by Karen Cushman
After finishing Monica Furlong’s classics Wise Child and Juniper, readers hungered for more and were left wondering what would be next for these beloved characters. Colman unfolds the next part of their journey. Narrated by Wise Child’s cousin and loyal friend, Colman, it tells how Juniper and her companions return to Cornwall for sanctuary—only to find much has changed.
Fourteen-years after publishing Juniper, Monica Furlong completed her trilogy with Colman, shortly before her death from cancer. It was worth the wait. Colman has burnished Furlough’s legacy as another quietly beautiful story portraying thoughtful, adventurous, caring, and brave characters who stand up to intolerance—just like their creator.

One of the greatest boxers of all time, Joe Louis was in the ring before and during World War II.

The Light of Egypt ✨
By: Thomas A. Burgoyne
As the twentieth century approached, and the Sun left Pisces to enter the Age of Aquarius, mystics predicted a major awakening in mankind's intellectual, religious, scientific, and spiritual pursuits. Among them was Thomas Henry Burgoyne, a Scottish astrologer and psychic who belonged to the Hermetic Brotherhood of Luxor, a Hermetic occult group. From a young age, Burgoyne claimed to have interacted with members of the Brotherhood of Light, advanced beings who attempt to lead humanity to its destiny. Decades later, friends urged him to share his wisdom—including his knowledge of the Brotherhood—with the public. The Light of Egypt is the result. Originally published as two volumes, this new version combines both books into one complete mystical library for any student of the occult. Burgoyne delves deeply into occult studies, including mystical teachings from ancient Egypt and Chaldea. New Age adherents have long considered the book an accessible yet thorough study of the meaning of life, paranormal activities, reincarnation, and other mystical topics. As the preface notes, the purpose of the book is to "explain the true spiritual connection between God and man, the soul and the stars . . . ."

Art Forms in Nature
By: Ernst Haeckel
With its meticulous color illustrations of exquisite life forms, Ernst Haeckel’s renderings are still considered accurate--after more than a century. Art Forms in Nature perfectly marries art and science. Haeckel, although a prolific biologist, chose here to report only the visual information, with no written essays. Nature, in his own words, embodies “a sense of the beautiful.”
First published at the turn of the last century, this book was something of a status symbol, indicating the level of education and sophistication of the families whose homes it graced. Exhibiting the aesthetic sensibilities of the Art Nouveau period, Haeckel’s work had a profound influence on many of the prominent artists of that time.

The Secret of the Golden Flower ✨
A Chinese Book of Life 🌏
Translated and Explained by Richard Wilhelm / With a Commentary by C. G. Jung
Available for preorder on our website 📚 “The method of redirecting one’s consciousness inward towards the self through a straightforward form of silent meditation and breathing was known as “turning the light around.” Through this process of channeling energy beyond the limits of the discriminating intellect, one’s psyche—indeed one’s very fundamental being—can gradually open and bloom. This leads to a pure awakening of the mind and spirit. The result can be metaphorically pictured as a bright “golden flower” mandala, representing the rewarding end goal of a personal alchemy of inner transformation.”

Handmade Adobes ✨🏡
By: Virginia Gray and Alan Macrae / Photography by Wayne McCall
“The idea for this book started some years ago as I looked around at building and realized that the houses I responded to most were built by people for themselves. The individuality and personal warmth stood out.
Building your own house is a great satisfaction for most people. It’s a very tangible accomplishment and also means having something to say about how you live—an alternative in a world that is increasingly remote and impersonal. All the people in these pages were open and enthusiastic about their building and sharing their experiences with us.”
