Businesswoman, milliner, writer, publisher, 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. Our 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.
