‘It made my heart race . . .’

‘I couldn't be more delighted with Slightly Foxed. I have been a member for some time now, loving the reviews, relishing the superb writing style, but until now I had never bought any of the specially bound books. Oh, I’d made lists of my favourites and promised myself this treat but just never actually got around to it. Then I read the review of Ghosting by Jennifer Erdal. It made my heart race . . .’

‘A thing of beauty . . .’

‘So thrilled you’re doing a calendar this year. I was given one as a gift a couple of years ago and was heartbroken to find you weren’t selling one last year. A thing of beauty.’

‘I’m so glad you’ve created a subscription for the Editions . . .’

‘I can’t wait to get Slightly Foxed Editions 44 and 45. I reread Winnie the Pooh this year and saw the exhibition of Shepard’s drawings. I’m so glad you’ve created a subscription for the Editions, so that I can pay in advance and don’t have to think about it. They will just come, like the gifts they are, as they are published. These are my Christmas gifts to myself. Thank you, and your photos on your website and in your email are beautiful’.

‘I have enjoyed it so much . . .’

‘Dear Slightly Foxed, I was recently given a subscription to your quarterly booklets for my 50th birthday. It was from a very good friend that I introduced to Persephone Books. So I knew, having never heard of your books, that it would be good as my friend has great literary taste! I have devoured the Summer read . . . ’

‘An absolute delight . . .’

‘Dear all, I just wanted to thank you so much for my order of A Country Doctor’s Commonplace Book. It arrived last week, so carefully packed and in immaculate condition. I was particularly touched by the postcard with a message from Olivia enclosed with it, and the bookmark. The book itself, beautifully printed, is an absolute delight. If I find myself feeling a bit down, I pick it up and open at random, and immediately feel better! Many thanks for this and all your excellent publications, not least the wonderful quarterly magazine.’ J. Gilfrin, Hertfordshire

‘I wanted cheering up so I opened A Country Doctor’s Commonplace Book and you could have heard my chuckles from Weybridge to London. I really think it is a book that everyone ought to have with them, by them, anywhere, any place; a good laugh is what we all need.’

‘Thank you for all my lovely goodies posted recently. I just love the notebooks and the Christmas cards are for special people. I’m so looking forward to the calendar and The Christmas Cracker. I find your online shop extraordinary and no matter how busy you are, or who answers the phone, there is always chat time. Thank you.’ D. Sayed, Surrey

‘A joy to hold in your hand . . .’

‘Just a quick note to thank you for the delivery of my recent order of A Country Doctor’s Commonplace Book, a great surprise in this morning’s post, just as I hoped it would be, very dry and clever, plus the second copy is one Christmas present off the list. As usual these books are not only interesting and something I may not necessarily have come across with other publishers, but also a joy to hold in your hand. Many thanks.’ B. Davidson, London

‘Thank you so much for your help and patience . . .’

‘To whichever kind person stayed online and on the phone this afternoon as I ploughed on trying to place an order for your Summer-Clean. I have since been into my online account and enjoyed whizzing through all the options. I don’t know what I was doing wrong but thank you so much for your help and patience on such a hot day and when you’re in the midst of so much internet activity. Stars all!’
