I can totally affirm that this is my favorite Penguin
edition. The cover is so beautiful, hardcover, soft, made of cloth, the
drawings are usually related with the topic of the book, the letter has the
perfect font and size that makes the reading so pleasant, enjoyable and easy.
The only problem is that they are a bit expensive
(comparing them with their paperback counterpart), but I assure you that it
worth each euro spend on them!
