From A to Z, the Penguin Drop Caps series collects 26 unique
hardcovers--featuring cover art by Jessica Hische
It all begins with a letter. Fall in love with Penguin Drop Caps,
a new series of twenty-six collectible and hardcover editions, each
with a type cover showcasing a gorgeously illustrated letter of the
alphabet. In a design collaboration between Jessica Hische and
Penguin Art Director Paul Buckley, the series features unique cover
art by Hische, a superstar in the world of type design and
illustration, whose work has appeared everywhere from Tiffany &
Co. to Wes Anderson's recent film "Moonrise Kingdom" to Penguin's
own bestsellers "Committed "and "Rules of Civility." With exclusive
designs that have never before appeared on Hische's hugely popular
Daily Drop Cap blog, the Penguin Drop Caps series debuted with an
'A' for Jane Austen's "Pride and Prejudice," a 'B' for Charlotte
Bronte's "Jane Eyre," and a 'C' for Willa Cather's "My Antonia." It
continues with more perennial classics, perfect to give as elegant
gifts or to showcase on your own shelves.
T is for Tan. In 1949 four Chinese women, recent immigrants to San
Francisco, begin meeting to eat dim sum, play mahjong, and talk.
United in shared unspeakable loss and hope, they call themselves
the Joy Luck Club. With wit and sensitivity, Amy Tan examines the
sometimes painful, often tender, and always deep connection between
these four women and their American-born daughters. As each woman
reveals her secrets, trying to unravel the truth about her life,
the strings become more tangled, more entwined.
