Can anyone help id this beautiful font? Have a feeling its very contemporary, or its a heavily altered classic.
Cheers,

Really? I wonder then if they intended it to look clumsy? I rather like it myself. This is a publication from Bedford Press, which has close ties to Radim Peško, who I think designed this. He has a very interesting style and isn't afraid to buck trends:

I'm looking man. It was one of the first things I saw. I appreciate it because I find it interesting when someone like Pesko decides to put some ugly/character into his work, especially in todays context where 'perfect' curves and proportions are achievable. It kind've draws some parallels with old specimens, where 'imperfections' were often due to technological issues i.e paper quality. Pesko's moves these into a stylistic area. Which I'm not opposed to. But it's ok if you are! :)
