This is my first book from Conversation Tree Press and I already have another on pre-order.
While described as a ‘standard’ state it really is a wonderful edition, with tasteful design choices throughout.
With this you’re getting a genuine fine press edition for not much more than some bigger names charge for very average materials and design.
The illustrations deserve a special mention and are very well suited to the story
All in all I’m very happy with the book and will follow the press with interest.
This book is a treasure. A work of discreet beauty. I particularly like the delicately embossed flowers on the cover. And the thick Munken paper. And these illustrations... Flowers of Algernon Standard is a high-quality product. To me there is nothing "standard" about this edition.
Based on other reviews and online comments, I had high expectations for this production and Tony has exceeded them all! I am delighted to own such a wonderful edition of one of my favourite books.
A beautiful book I cannot wait to read!
Stunning, I'm very pleased with the quality of this production. It's a piece of art.
Paper feels and looks wonderful. Great binding and craftsmanship. Recommend.
Can’t say enough how beautiful this book is. Everything about it is just so well done! It is one of (if not THE) nicest books in my collection.
Great paper, great printing, nicely bound - an excellent all round effort.
This haunting story has been given a sensitive and beautiful treatment. The quality of the printing, illustrations, binding and slip-case are all excellent. Conversation Tree Press continues to impress with every new edition.
This is an absolutely gorgeous and well made book. The artwork was stunning and perfectly complemented the story.
The layout and quality is well executed and worth the cost of admission.
My first purchase but certainly not my last, I can’t wait to see what comes next from this publisher.
Absolutely top tier quality. First title from Conversation Tree Press, definitely not the last.
My second purchase from Conversation Tree Press. Superior quality books and gorgeous illustrations. The floral paper and cloth are pleasant additions. Looking forward to future printings.
This is my first book from Conversation Tree Press and I couldn't be happier with my purchase. It's made with great quality-materials, beautifully crafted, and the illustrations are also beautiful (and fantastic print quality, which isn't self-understood, unfortunately) and their number generous. It's simply a gorgeous book and I'm really looking forward to reading it. As for the standard edition in particular, the floral paper and cloth used are very appealing and I appreciate that you can get such a beautiful edition that doesn't use leather.
After receiving my standard edition copy of Faun some time back, I was so impressed with the quality I didn't hesitate to return to Conversation Tree Press. Flowers for Algernon is a book I have not read before, and part of the attraction of these books is I am being introduced to new stories. To say I am pleased with this again is an understatement. The care and attention put into each edition is superb, and the overall feel of the book is delightful. Customer service is bang on as well, which gives a lot of comfort when investing in fine press books. Thank you to all contributors involved, it's a real group effort but you've pulled it off and then some.
