The Ten Essential Penguin Classics

The Ten Essential Penguin Classics
Penguin Classics recently came up with a list of the Ten Essentials Penguin Classics, the books every person should read. Each of these ten great works—ranging from poetry to plays to novels and non-fiction—has lasted and enlightened audiences throughout the ages, and they all still have something relevant to say to readers. To celebrate these books, Penguin has produced a twenty-minute video showing what happens to a hapless young suitor who hasn't yet read our Essential Classics. You can watch the video here, or visit the Ten Essential Penguin Classics minisite to learn more.
