Complete List of Penguin Clothbound Classics (Updated for 2017)

Amanda Kennedy


Since 2008, Penguin have published classic literature in a beautifully packaged format: the Clothbound Classics series. Each edition is bound in cloth, with covers individually designed by the talented Coralie Bickford-Smith.

Several new titles have been published since I first created a complete list of this collection, including all three volumes of Proust's Rememberance of Things Past and Jule's Verne's 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. So I decided to update the list to include these new titles, along with a free printable download with full details of each title to assist in completing your own collection.

    1. Those are hardback, not clothbound. They're a part of the Penguin English Library series, I believe.
