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.Over the course of six years,Maria Rilke wrote a series of letters to a young officer cadet,advising him on writing,love,suffering and the nature of advice itself; these profound and lyrical letters have since become hugely influential for writers and artists of all kinds. This volume also contains the'Letter from a Young Worker',a striking polemic against Christianity written too in letter form.
