Welcome to Purgatory Valley
a book resurrection collective
As book resurrectors, we seek to unearth books that have gone out-of-print or under-sung.
When independent publishers close, their books end up in a purgatorial space—
Readers must deal with the reality that access to those books has become drastically limited.
Books are artifacts that protect ideas the way a house protects a dreamer.
In Purgatory Valley, we aim to breathe a second life into these artifacts.
