Chiltern Publishing was formed in 2018 with a vision to create the most beautiful classics.

Jane Austen's original books (particularly Pride and Prejudice) from the 1800s were our inspiration.

So, using a perfect mix of tradition and the very latest in printing techniques, 19th Century quality has met 21st Century technology.

With wonderfully detailed covers, sparkling golden edges, creamy pages, and stitched binding they are the most beautiful classics ever published.

The novella by Polish-English novelist Joseph Conrad centers around a sailor named Marlow, who becomes captain of an ivory trading steam ship in colonized Africa.

Marlow tells a group of travelers about his journey up the Congo River.

Along the way, Marlow witnesses the brutality of European colonialism.Widely regarded as a critique of European colonial rule in Africa, it has endured to stand as a Modernist masterpiece.
