For the Love of a Good Book! Our ‘Friends and Family Deal’ Delivers

Thirty years ago, in The Paris Review, Margaret Atwood said, “Every novel is — at the beginning — the same opening of a door onto a completely unknown space.”  Whether as writer or reader, we grab hold of the words and step, in brave anticipation, to the other side. And what is true of literature, is also true of life: We are all now summoning courage, closing physical doors, but opening others onto completely unknown spaces.

Literature, because it has always been an alchemy of solitude and community, might just be what saves us yet: A writer toils away in a room of their own, then brings their work to the world. A reader cozies up with a book in a quiet corner, united with others reading the same magical lines. And now, in the silence of this closed-door world, books open countless others, inviting us to explore unfamiliar realms, to discover new possibilities, to befriend the strange.

In this spirit of alone together, we are honoured to offer you a literary gift of connection through distance. When you purchase Allaigna’s Song: Aria before our official launch on April 19th, we will send a digital copy of Allaigna’s Song: Overture to a friend, colleague, or loved one of your choice.

Simply email us at info@pulpliterature.com with ‘Friends and Family’ in the subject line and send

• An image of your proof of purchase of Allaigna’s Song: Aria from our website, Amazon, or any other retailer.
• The email address of the friend to whom you’d like us to send a free copy of Allaigna’s Song: Overture.*
• The message (if any) you’d like us to include.

*If your friend has already read Overture we’re happy to send Aria instead.

The Allaigna’s Song trilogy, while it contains heart-stopping action, adventure, and magic, is ultimately about family — both the family we’re born with, and the family we create — and we are delighted to be able to share it with your nearest and dearest.
