Every book tells a story . . .
And the 70 titles in the Pocket Penguins Series are emblematic of the renowned breadth and quality that formed part of the original Penguin vision in 1935 and that continue to define our publishing today. Together, they tell one version of the unique story of Penguin Books.
A major inspiration for the early feminist movement, Anais Nin became notorious following the publication of her sensual journals. Penguin publish a wide range of Nin's books, including the sensuous Delta of Venus. Originally written in the 1940s, these stories are mesmerizing explorations of art, power and passionate desire by one of the most eloquent writers of erotic literature.
