The CP wax seal of Citizenshare Publishing House

Colophon

This archive is set in three faces. The wordmark is composed in Bodoni Moda, a revival of Giambattista Bodoni’s late–eighteenth–century types, cut in Parma not far from the lagoon where Miriam posted her letters. Display headings are set in Cormorant Garamond; the text you are reading is EB Garamond, drawn from the punches of Claude Garamont, Paris, c. 1532.

The house colors are a bookbinder’s burgundy and a sealing-wax gold. The mark that closes each entry is a fleuron — the printer’s flower — used since the incunabula to tell the reader: this was ended on purpose.

The films that move through these pages are amateur reels of Venice, photographed in the 1930s, preserved and republished from the public archives. The photographs of the Piazza are albumen prints of the same era. Nothing here is stock in spirit; everything is chosen.

Citizenshare Publishing House produces clinician-reviewed relational insight, delivered through literature. Its flagship work, What Your Daughter Stopped Sharing, is drawn from a twenty-three-month correspondence, Venice, 1947 — translated from the Italian.
