Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

In 2005 John Banville won the Booker Prize for THE SEA and the jury noted: ”a masterly study of grief, memory and love recollected“ […] A man attempts to escape a recent loss while confronting a trauma from a long lost summer, in John Banville‘s haunting and evocative novel.“ Max is an exceptional narrator: intelligent, hurt and attentive. Our edition of Banville’s The Sea is set by Erik Spiekermann in Signifier, designed by Kris Sowersby. Signifier is a “brutalist“ response to 17th century typefaces. The jacket design is inspired by a classic tweed pattern with a futuristic touch. It is signed by John Banville and the edition is limited to 998 copies.
