Introducing Little Clothbound Classics: irresistible mini editions of short stories novellas
and essays from the world's greatest writers designed by the award-winning Coralie
Bickford-Smith. Celebrating the range and diversity of Penguin Classics they take us from
snowy Japan to springtime Vienna from haunted New England to a sun-drenched Mediterranean
island and from a game of chess on the ocean to a love story on the moon. Beautifully designed
and printed these collectible editions are bound in colourful tactile cloth and stamped with
foil. The Enchanted April Elizabeth von Arnim's brilliant irrepressible novella tells the
tale of four very different women who on answering an advertisement in The Times find
themselves far away from the drizzle of London and instead in the warmth of an Italian sun.
There alongside the lapping of the Mediterranean the women's spirits begin to shift and
quite unexpected changes take place.
