Introducing the Little Clothbound Classics: irresistible, mini editions of short stories, novellas, and essays by the world's greatest writers, designed by the award-winning Coralie Bickford-Smith. Celebrating the range and diversity of Penguin Classics, they take us from snow-covered Japan to springtime Vienna, from haunted New England to a sun-drenched Mediterranean island, and from a game of chess on the ocean to a love story on the moon. Beautifully designed and printed, these collectible editions are bound in colorful, textured cloth and stamped with foil. The current selection includes essays such as 'Shooting an Elephant', 'Such, Such Were the Joys', and 'Some Thoughts on the Common Toad'.
