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 embossed covers, sparkling golden edges, creamy pages, and stitched binding they are the most beautiful classics ever published. The Phantom of the Opera by Gaston Leroux is a beautiful, classic novel that has an extremely compelling story.

The book is about a Parisian opera house that is “haunted” by a mysterious and alluring phantom.

The phantom falls in love with soprano Christine Daaè which causes a ton of trouble for the opera house.
