Clemence Housman's The Were-Wolf Dashboard
Description
Clemence Housman’s The Were-Wolf, a gothic novella set in pre-industrial Scandinavia, is the first of her three prose romances. The COVE edition of The Were-Wolf is not based on the work's initial appearance in 1890 in Atalanta, a magazine for girls, but rather on the book version published by John Lane at The Bodley Head in 1896. This version was the outcome of a close collaboration between the author and her brother, Laurence Housman, who designed the book and its bindings, the decorated title-page, a pictorial initial, and six full-page illustrations for engraving by Clemence, who was a skilled wood engraver. Led by Editor-in-Chief Lorraine Janzen Kooistra, the COVE Were-Wolf is the outcome of intensive collaboration by members of her graduate class in Digital Publishing at Ryerson University in W2018.
