Penguin leather-bound classics

The great gatsby Here at Trashionista we love us some paraphernalia from Penguin Books - so much so that I've privately started calling it "Penguinalia".

Now Penguin Books have collaborated with leather goods designers Bill Amberg to produce six modern paperback classics bound in soft calves' leather.

The titles are

  • The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde
  • A Room with a View by E.M.Forster
  • The Great Gatsby by F.Scott Fitzgerald
  • The Big Sleep by Raymond Chandler
  • Brideshead Revisited by Evelyn Waugh
  • Breakfast at Tiffany's by Truman Capote

Leather is usually used to bind hardback books, but these soft bindings have been specially designed to "become more beautiful" each time they are handled!  Each book comes with a leather bookmark, and you can buy them for £30.00 apiece.
