John Banville’s literary reputation is built on the fictional portraits of three brilliant scientists (Copernicus, Kepler, Newton). He won the Booker Prize twice - we remastered the award-winning novel “The Sea”.

Our edition of Banville’s, The Sea is set in Signifier, designed by Kris Sowersby. Signifier is a “brutalist“ response to 17th century Garamond. The jacket design is inspired by a classic tweed pattern. It is signed by John Banville. #johnbanville#signifier#krissowersby
