Everyman's Library
Penguin Clothbound Classics.
The only shit thing about it is that the white parts of the cover disappears after use.
>>7998495
folio society edition
>>7998682
You can't get those anymore, unless you buy them second hand and pay a shit ton more than the original price.
>>7998616
NoBut I forced myself to read it on english and I think that I fucked up my enjoyment of it. I should reread it in my native language like a loser one of these days

Northwestern Newberry Editions are the best Melville. Hard-backs in this case are for plebs.
>>7998682
That looks beautiful. It's a shame it is sold out everywhere.
>>7998495
Somebody explain to me why this book holds such a prominent place in our culture.
>>8001544

>>8001555
Oh, okay, nevermind then.

Most editions use the Northwestern-Newberry version, from what I've seen. Just check the copyright page.

>>8001781
that image looks terrible though. It looks like some 3rd rate stuff you'd see on deviantart, kek
I won't create a new thread just for that, so I will ask here:
Which edition/publication of the Arabian Nights do you recommend?
>>7998495

Can someone recommend a book which contains most of lovecraft's works which isn't riddled with a chidlish design on the cover?
>>8001555
No, it's more universal than that.
>>8004223
Every publication of lovecraft is covered with faggot shit cause H.P. Lovecraft was a hack and all his fans are 14 year old edgelords
>>8004223
>Lovecraft
>Not getting those Arkham House editions of the 40's
>>8004569
Sorry but this looks gay. Why can't it be a plain cover?
Why wasn't Moby-Dick recognized as a masterpiece when it was first published?
>>8004739
Too crazy for the 19th century I imagine.
>>8004739
Because nobody wanted to read 400 pages of instructions on how to capture and kill whales.
>>8004185

Oh well, I guess it's the journey that matters plus I heard the prose is great.
