Paperblanks Picaresque Collection – A Tribute to Literary Adventure
Step into a world of wit, satire, and timeless storytelling with the Paperblanks Picaresque Collection. Featuring a regal purple and gold design inspired by the 18th-century French novel Gil Blas by Alain-René Lesage, this series brings the spirit of the anti-hero to life in a beautifully made range of journals and guestbooks.
Celebrating the rich tradition of the picaresque tale—where clever underdogs navigate a corrupt world with sharp minds and sharper humor—this collection evokes the literary charm that captivated Enlightenment thinkers and inspired great writers like Edgar Allan Poe and Thomas Jefferson.
The collection includes notebooks in four versatile sizes for journaling, planning, or sketching, along with a landscape-format guestbook ideal for weddings, anniversaries, and special events. Every piece features Smythe-sewn binding for flat opening, acid-free sustainable paper, and thoughtful extras like ribbon markers and memento pouches.
Whether you're writing your own story or commemorating a meaningful occasion, the Paperblanks Picaresque Collection offers elegance, inspiration, and lasting quality on every page.
