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-SmithCelebrating 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.Jean-Baptiste Clamence - refined,handsome,forty,a former successful lawyer - is in turmoil. Over several drunken nights he regales a chance acquaintance with his story. He talks of parties and his debauchery,of Parisian nights and the Aegean sea,and,ultimately,of his self-loathing. One of Albert Camus'most famous works,The Fall is a brilliant,complex portrayal of lost innocence and the true face of man.
