The Englishman Limited First Edition

May 4, 2017 by Helena Halme Leave a Comment

Special First Edition

The first edition of The Englishman is very special to me because it was the first ever book I published. This novel, which came out in paperback in 2013, has had more covers than an Elvis song, so you can imagine that looking back at the first ever paperback copy makes me quite dewy-eyed.

The novel itself was born (by popular demand) from a series of blog posts where I’d poured my heart out and told my personal story of how I’d met and fallen head over heels in love with my Englishman. 

The cover image also features my Englishman in his tropical uniform in a photo which I’ve always adored. I was adamant I’d use it for the cover but had to sweet talk the Englishman into it. (The compromise was not showing his face on the cover).

The current cover has roses on it, so you can see the first version was quite different.

The first edition of The Englishman is now out of circulation and will not be printed anymore, but I will always keep at least one copy of this book on my shelf.

However, even though I buy most of my books for my Kindle, our home is becoming more and more cluttered with my own and other books, so I’ve decided I will let go of a limited number of copies of The Englishman first edition books from my library.
