Far From The Madding Crowd

You have probably never heard about Edwin Frank. But he is onto something special these days, bringing back from obscurity those stories that are long forgotten. Frank is the editor who oversees the New York Review Children’s Collection, a modest publishing venture that reissues eight or 10 out-of-print books a year. Some of the titles that have been re-published are Lucretia Hale’s “The Peterkin Papers”, E. Nesbit’s “The House of Arden”. Other titles similarly resurrected are “Jenny and the Cat Club”, “The Island of Horses” and “D’Aulaires’ Book of Trolls.”
