The Red Room by H. G. Wells, hand-bound in genuine leather by LeatheredLines. First published in 1896, H. G. Wells's ghost story follows a young man who insists on spending a night alone in the haunted red room of Lorraine Castle, despite the warnings of its strange elderly custodians. As the candles go out one by one, he learns what truly haunts the room. A short, atmospheric classic of Victorian horror.
About this leather-bound edition
We cover every book in genuine leather by hand, finishing the spine with gold-tone foil titling and decorative tooling in the tradition of fine library bindings. Because each copy is made individually, small variations in leather grain and colour are a natural sign of handwork.
The thickness and weight of the finished book depend on the length of this particular title. Longer works make a noticeably thicker volume, while shorter works are slimmer.
