Thoughts about Popular Penguins?
>>
I can't read a book unless it looks good.
>>
i hardly ever touch penguin unless it's the only publication or not much information exists on other publications.

Oxford is superior, so is loeb for latin, nyrb for "obscure", everymans library is good for collections which might be hard to find elsewhere, they group up lots of authors short stories, and they look good too.

I can't stand the black gutenburg reprints, but the orange penguins are good, cheap literature. They also makes it easier to read Lolita in public.

Why are they called "popular" penguins?

Is a book being popular a criteria for it being given an arbitrarily bland edition?

Just get a fucking library card then

I guess they're ideal for schools. I really don't know why you would willingly buy one other than it being slightly cheaper than a regular penguin classic

What? There's no lack of freedom of speech today. Only if you're complaining about certain paragraphs in certain countries that punish insults.
