Last week Penguin launched 10 Essential Penguin Classics, a website dedicated to the most classic classics at the imprint–explore the list through this handy book trailer.
In addition to the site and video, Penguin Classics have also started a contest for dedicated Classics readers. Here’s more information: “Tell us which of the Ten Essential Penguin Classics is your favorite, and why, and you’ll be entered into a sweepstakes to win all ten Essential Penguin Classics, along with a Penguin tote bag. Or, if your favorite classic book isn’t on our list, tell us what it is and why you think it’s essential.”
The contest ends on November 20, 2009. As you search for inspiration, you can watch the Penguin Classic video’s blooper reel after the jump–the first book video blooper reel ever to come across this GalleyCat editor’s desk.
