Two Hearts that Beat as One:
An Autobiography

By Sonia H. Davis
Edited by Monica Wasserman

From the Publisher’s Website

Businesswoman, milliner, writer, publisher, and patroness—known to many as the woman who was married to famed ‘weird fiction’ writer H.P. Lovecraft—Sonia Haft Greene Lovecraft Davis was a woman of many names because she lived a rich and fascinating life. Scholar and editor Monica Wasserman, working with Helios House Press, is delighted to be publishing a beautiful case-bound (hardcover) edition of Sonia’s autobiography, Two Hearts that Beat as One, sharing Sonia’s story in her own words accompanied by a plethora of photos and papers from her archives, and with a foreword by Sean Branney and Andrew Leman of the H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society.

These case-bound (hardcover) books are printed in full colour on high-quality art paper, and Smythe-sewn for durability and lay-flat convenience. The Standard Edition book features a quarter-bound hardcover with gold foil details. The Collector’s Edition is presented in a handsome slipcase, and comes with a tipped-in page signed by the editor and a small extra gift reproduction of a note from H.P. Lovecraft to Sonia.
