PENGUIN ENGLISH LIBRARY

The Penguin English Library comprises 100 of the best novels in the English language. From romances like Pride and Prejudice and A Room With A View to gothic horrors such as Dracula and Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde as well as fantastic tales of adventure in Robinson Crusoe and Treasure Island, there are books for every kind of reader. Penguin commissioned British designer Coralie Bickford-Smith to design the covers for the series, with each inspired by an element from the story.

To celebrate their nomination as part of the Brilliant Britain guide, we’re delighted to share this short video from Penguin, celebrating one of the literary classics.
