Bunyan, John - The Pilgrim’s Progress Limited Edition (Published in by The Folio Society in 2020. John Bunyan’s religious masterpiece paired with William Blake’s watercolours in a unique limited edition. Limited to 750 hand-numbered copies. Quarter-bound in red leather blocked in gold foil. Cloth sides blocked on front in gold foil and printed with black ink. Binding design by Anne Yvonne Gilbert. Leather titling label blocked in gold inset on front. Set in Poliphilus with Blado as display and printed on Arctic Volume Ivory paper. 384 pages. 28 watercolour illustrations by William Blake. Gilded top edge. Introduction by Nathalie Collé. Editorial material by Roger Pooley. Cloth-covered slipcase inset with an illustration label. 12¾? x 9¾?. The Pilgrim’s Progress, arguably the most influential religious book ever written in the English language, is an absorbing allegorical account of the journey of Christian, a tormented Everyman, from life in the City of Destruction, burdened by fear of damnation, to eternal salvation in the Celestial City. Nearly 350 years after it appeared, its phrases are still part of our shared language – from the Slough of Despond to Vanity Fair – and it continues to speak to modern readers, with its evocative descriptions of the doubts, fears, trials and temptations of earthly existence. )
