Set in 1939, this is the story of Louis Seynaeve, a 10 year-old Flemish boy with a wild imagination. He is a student at a convent boarding school, but his chief interest is in his secret society, the Apostles. However his life changes when the Nazis invade Flanders, and he begins to grow up fast.
The first ten paperback Penguin books appeared in 1935 costing 6d each (the price of a packet of cigarettes). Since then the Penguin list has developed enormously, but still aims to bring the best writing to the widest possible audience. Penguin Paperbacks now range from Booker Prize-winning contemporary authors, to mass market bestsellers, with successful history, biography and general non-fiction as well.
