90 Classic titles celebrating 90 years of Penguin Books
No author perfected the twist in the tale better than Roald Dahl. His stories - many of which were filmed as Tales of the Unexpected - take us into a world that is shocking, funny and always has a sinister edge. What if plants could feel pain? What kind of father would bet his daughter in a wager? And what is the secret behind that delicious lamb dinner…?
In January 1946, the Penguin Classics list was launched with E. V. Rieu's translation of The Odyssey. The series now consists of over 800 titles including the best in English, American, European, classical and non-western literature and an extensive range of philosophy, religion, art, history and politics titles.
