Introducing the Little Clothbound Classics: irresistible, mini editions of short stories, novellas, and essays from the greatest writers in the world, designed by the award-winning Coralie Bickford-Smith. Celebrating the diversity and richness of Penguin Classics, they take us on a journey from snowy Japan to autumnal Vienna, from haunted New England to a sunny Mediterranean island, and from a chess game in the ocean to a love story on the moon.
These beautifully designed and printed collectible editions are bound in colorful, tactile fabric and feature gold-foiled details. A novella considered by Edith Wharton to be one of her best, "Summer" tells the story of a forbidden sexual passion and failed dreams against the backdrop of a rich summer season in rural Massachusetts. A sensation upon its initial publication, the honest depiction of a young woman's struggle to live on her own terms remains vital today.
