'Better mad with the crowd than sane all alone' In these witty,
Machiavellian aphorisms, unlikely Spanish priest Baltasar Gracian
shows us how to exploit friends and enemies alike to thrive in a
world of deception and illusion. Introducing Little Black Classics:
80 books for Penguin's 80th birthday. Little Black Classics
celebrate the huge range and diversity of Penguin Classics, with
books from around the world and across many centuries. They take us
from a balloon ride over Victorian London to a garden of blossom in
Japan, from Tierra del Fuego to 16th-century California and the
Russian steppe. Here are stories lyrical and savage; poems epic and
intimate; essays satirical and inspirational; and ideas that have
shaped the lives of millions. Baltasar Gracian (1601-1658).
Gracian's work is available in Penguin Classics in The Pocket
Oracle and Art of Prudence.
