About
ITHYS PRESS is a fine-press publishing house based in Dublin, Ireland. We are exclusively dedicated to producing first editions of new works by today’s groundbreaking writers and previously unknown works by masters in the humanist tradition.
Each Ithys book is a genuinely international artistic, intellectual, and aesthetic collaboration: our texts are unique, illuminated by original artwork, made with the finest materials, and set, printed and bound by undisputed masters of these arts. Most of our books are produced entirely by hand, letterpress-printed and hand-bound. These extraordinary limited editions marry texts of cultural significance with original artistic expression.
We aim to publish one major book per year. Our first title was released in November 2011; we launched our second in January 2012; and our third will be released in Spring 2013.
2013 will also see the launch of Ithysia, our fine-press chapbook series featuring new poetry and short prose from around the world.
We welcome suggestions for new titles and submissions of previously unpublished manuscripts and original artwork.

Congratulations on a beautiful and entirely worthy publication. How many of us even knew that Joyce visited the city of Hans Christian Andersen’s mermaid, never mind wrote a children’s story there…the active response to the lingering copyright issues is timely and appropriate.
