Borders has teamed up with Penguin Classics to exclusively sell a range of newly designed hardback classics, including Oliver Twist and The Odyssey.

Penguin Press' senior cover designer Coralie Bickford-Smith created the covers, with each design picking up on a central item from the story.

"[I used the chairs for Emma] because Emma is all about the social conversations—the matchmaking and etiquette. [The cover for] Little Women is scissors, because [the story] is all about them making things and Jo cutting her hair."

The clothbound hardback titles, with matt foil and a ribbon marker, are available exclusively in Australia at Borders stores. An amazing addition to any bookshelf, see in store for the full range of titles.
