The Helsinki Trilogy

Penguin International Writers

'A Finnish masterpiece of autofiction... a dreamy, complex and therefore so very human portrait of the formation of a great artist' Financial Times A riveting, funny coming-of-age story: the second volume in Pirkko Saisio's award-winning Helsinki trilogyTeenaged Pirkko can't decide which she hates most: God, her communist father, or her growing breasts. Grandpa has moved into the room long promised to her, and Mother, overworked and distant, tries to keep the peace between her headstrong daughter and husband. It's 1960s Finland and Pirkko has fun getting into trouble. That is, until her teacher suggests she might have what it takes to be a real writer. Then the historic summer of 1968 arrives, which Pirkko spends working at a Swiss orphanage where no one understands her and, as much as her family drive her mad, she's homesick for the first time.As the world shifts and swirls around her, Pirkko must make sense of it all - including her own sexual identity. A funny, unique coming-of-age story and an intimate portrait of a life lived in language, Backlight is the second volume in Pirkko Saisio's award-winning Helsinki trilogy.

Backlight

For the first time available from Penguin Classics U.S., a new translation for one of the greatest writers of twentieth-century France A Penguin Classic Claudine lives in a large house with a rose-filled garden and a vegetable patch smelling of tomato leaves and apricots. Beyond her house is the village, where traveling performers stop for the night and wedding feasts take place under a bright summer moon. Inside her house are Mama, who loves animals, Papa, who lost his leg in the war, and a library full of forbidden and irresistible books . . . Based on Colette’s own early life, Claudine’s House is a rich and enchanting depiction of childhood, animals, flowers, trees, books, families, and love in late-nineteenth-century France. Penguin Classics is the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world, representing a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.

Claudine's House

Little Clothbound Classics

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. In these elegant and devastating tales of deception, desire, and social intrigue, Edith Wharton exposes the brittle veneer of civility that masks human ambition and longing. From the sunlit terraces of Rome to the drawing rooms of New York, Wharton’s characters navigate a world bound by class and convention yet charged with emotional undercurrents they barely understand. In “Roman Fever,” two middle-aged women confront the unspoken rivalries that have shadowed their friendship for decades; in “Mrs. Manstey’s View,” a lonely widow’s cherished glimpse of life beyond her window becomes the stage for a quiet tragedy; and in “After Holbein,” the elaborate pretenses of two aging New Yorkers reveal the haunting persistence of vanity and illusion. These Wharton works are the latest to join the Little Clothbound Classic series designed by Coralie Bickford-Smith. Penguin Classics is the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world, representing a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.

The Quiet Mother

The Paris Bookshop Mysteries

A delightful French cozy mystery set in the dazzling word of 19th-century Paris: an endearingly quirky young bookseller / part-time crime solver investigates a sinister death at the city's greatest landmark. The first in the bestselling Paris Bookshop Mysteries, perfect for fans of Boris Akunin and S.G. Maclean! It's a sunny weekend in Paris like no other. All those with money to spare are rushing to climb the brand-new Eiffel Tower: the glory of the 1889 Universal Exposition. Among them is Victor Legris: bookseller, amateur photographer, and owner of Paris's beloved Elzevir Bookshop. When he and the rest of the crowd witness a woman suddenly collapse and die on the Tower's second floor, Legris is certain her death was caused by something more ominous than a bee sting like the authorities claim. Determined to figure out what really happened, he sets out on an investigation that takes him all across Paris, from the city's art dealers and literary salons, to its newspaper offices, to the slums on the banks of the Seine. But when the deaths begin to multiply--all victims who were on the second floor that day--Legris finds himself in a race against time to catch the killer before it is too late. Murder on the Eiffel Tower is the exciting first installment in a series of warm and cozy mysteries set in Belle Epoque Paris, starring a bookshop manager, Victor Legris, and his team of bookselling associates. Penned by sisters Liliane and Laurence Korb, who were booksellers on the banks of the Seine for many years, the Paris Bookshop Mysteries series has sold more than 800,000 copies in France and been translated into 8 languages.

Miles Franklin is Australia’s progressive literary star!Consider signing up for our 2026 Smith &amp; Taylor Subscription, and get My Brilliant Career alongside six other incredible titles as they publish this year (and at a big discount).My Brilliant Career (1901) is a landmark of Australian feminist literature and a true testament to the electric energy of teen girl ambition and woe. Drawing heavily on the author's own life, it offers a vivid and sometimes unsparing portrait of rural Australia in the late 19th century.<div>Sybylla Melvyn's father has squandered the family's fortunes through reckless speculation and descended into alcoholism, leaving them to scrape a living from a failing dairy farm. Sybylla is sharp, ambitious, and desperate for a life beyond her circumstances — she dreams of books, music, and becoming a writer. A spell with more prosperous relatives brings welcome relief and the romantic attention of wealthy neighbor Harold Beecham, but her fierce independence makes the dusty path to true love anything but smooth.</div><div> </div><div>Originally published under a name ambiguous enough to pass as male, her legacy lives on in Australia's most prestigious literary prize, the Miles Franklin Award, and its companion prize, the Stella, which celebrates fiction by women.
