“It was something… the way a person’s life picked up speed, the way a life was like a bullet aimed at one final target, impossible to slow or turn aside, and like the bullet, you were ignorant of what you were going to hit, would never know anything except the rush and the impact.” — Joe Hill, Horns


Personally Signed by Joe Hill and Magdalena Kaczan. This Signed Lettered Edition is Limited to only 26. 

 

Suntup Press 2019. Limited to 26 copies for sale, lettered A-Z in Morse code. This is the first North American signed limited edition of Horns.  Signed by Joe Hill and artist Magdalena Kaczan. Measures 6” x 9”, features twelve full-color illustrations by Magdalena Kaczan and includes a new introduction by Joe Hill. This edition is printed letterpress.

 

This is Lettered "PC" as noted by the Morse Code on the limitation page. 

 

The lettered edition is limited to 26 copies for sale, lettered A-Z in Morse code and printed letterpress on Rives cotton paper. It is quarter bound in leather with crushed silk boards. A 14-karat gold cross is inset into the cover, with the chain of the cross foil stamped in gold. The edition features a gilded top edge and three custom pitchfork-shaped bands across the leather spine. Endpapers are handmade in India with metallic gold and silver on a base of 100% cotton rag. The book is housed in a handmade rough-sawn pine box with a black velvet-lined bookbed, and is designed to resemble the underside of a treehouse with a trapdoor opening.


A dark fantasy novel originally published in 2010, Horns is the book with which TIME Magazine proclaimed, “Joe Hill has emerged as one of America’s finest horror writers.” Horns follows the story of Ig Parish. After the brutal murder of his girlfriend Merrin Williams, a grief-stricken Ig awakens one morning to find horns growing out of his head. Ig soon discovers the horns hold a mysterious power that forces people to reveal their deepest and darkest secrets to him as he defends his innocence and fights to avenge the death of his one true love.

Horns was nominated for a Bram Stoker Award and hailed by the Los Angeles Times as “a richly nuanced story. Fire and brimstone have rarely looked this good.” In 2013, the novel was adapted into a film starring Daniel Radcliffe, which made its debut at The Toronto International Film Festival before receiving a theatrical release on October 31, 2014.

“Artist Magdalena Kaczan’s artwork just about glows on the page. There’s something about her style — dreamy, vulnerable, rippling with texture…” — Joe Hill

About the Publisher

There is a clear distinction between a book that is mass produced, and one that is a finely crafted book. Our Limited and Lettered editions are hand-bound, one at time, and we go to great expense to utilize only the finest materials available. Most of our editions are printed letterpress, which is the printing method perfected by Gutenberg, who used it to produce the first book printed from moveable type in the West, the now-famous Gutenberg Bible.

 

The mission of our press is to publish finely crafted limited editions, by collaborating with some of today’s leading writers, artists, designers, printers and bookmakers to create an edition that is itself, an art object. By incorporating elements of the story into the design and production of the books, and enclosures, our editions offer a unique reading experience.



About the Edition

This is the first North American signed limited edition of Horns, and it is presented in three states: An Artist Gift edition, a Numbered edition and a Lettered edition. All three measure 6” x 9” and feature twelve full-color illustrations by Magdalena Kaczan. The editions are signed by Joe Hill and Magdalena Kaczan, and all editions include a new introduction by Joe Hill.

This is the Signed Lettered Edition
