   Are Penguin Classics worth it?

   • Where 40 euros/week is considered above average for a student, Penguin Classics are just not worth it. It's way more affordable to buy classics from Wordsworth classics, Collins Classics or Random House's Vintage series, which generally cost around 3 euros.

   Why is Penguin Classics so popular?

The series is not a catalogue of relics; it’s a list of living texts, a gathering of insights into the human condition from around the world and across time.

   Is Penguin Classics a good book?

   • Penguin Classics just happens to be the sole publisher of great, modern translations of those two books. I would read the hell out of Robin Buss ( Monte Cristo) and Norman Denny ( Les Miz) rather than the creaky, old-timey Victorian-era ones that other publishers offer.

   Penguin English Library editions are really pretty, and I own a lot of them, but they're not very practical—no notes or introductions and the binding tends to be really tight. Oxford World Classics are really great quality, but I don't care for the look of the spines and some of the covers are atrocious.
