Apsley Cherry-Garrard
“I am glad The Worst Journey is coming out in Penguins: after all it is largely about penguins.”
Apsley Cherry-Garrard, The Worst Journey in the World

Penelope Lively
“And long gone are the days when a paperback meant a Penguin, pure and simple, let alone when a paperback publisher could confidently market a product with no image at all on the cover - just the title and the author's name, emphatically lettered. Beautiful.”
Penelope Lively, Dancing Fish and Ammonites: A Memoir
