	We are excited to introduce for the first time in Modern Classics Kurt Vonnegut’s novel, CAT'S CRADLE, with an introduction by the American novelist Benjamin Kunkel. With his death in 2007, Vonnegut’s reputation as a literary idol of the 60s and 70s was confirmed, and he in now considered one of the most important novelists of the 20th century. A hymn to 1960s counter-culture the CAT'S CRADLE is a cult tale of global destruction that belongs to the Early Cold War period. MORE FEATURES...




This month we’re pleased to publish AMERICAN SUPERNATURAL TALES by the acclaimed editor S.T. Joshi. Wonderful though he is, there are American novelists of the occult other than Edgar Allan Poe. AMERICAN SUPERNATURAL TALES celebrates the richness of this tradition with chilling contributions from some of the nation’s brightest literary lights, including H. P. Lovecraft, Shirley Jackson, Ray Bradbury, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and—of course— Stephen King. By turns phantasmagoric, spectral, and demonic, AMERICAN SUPERNATURAL TALES is a frighteningly good addition to Penguin Classics.



We are very excited to be publishing a landmark new translation of the QUR'AN. This glorious new translation of the major book from one of the world’s great religions comes in a beautiful hardback edition, and has been translated by Tarif Khalidi.
