A preview of these beautifully designed, tiny treasures.

The Little Black Classics range was launched in 2015, to celebrate Penguin’s 80th birthday. They are beautifully designed, complete little books to be collected, shared and given as gifts. The Little Black Classics celebrate the huge range and diversity of Penguin Classics from around the world and over the centuries. Here are stories lyrical and savage; poems epic and intimate; essays satirical and inspirational; and ideas that have shaped the lives of millions.
