    Classics have the most beautiful covers of all time. Companies put so much detail into their covers. Currently my favorite edition of paperback classics are the signature classics and the hardcover versions I love are the Chiltern classics.

    If you loved Rilke’s Letters to a Young Poet, you must read Duino Elegies. It can be a life-changing work if read at the right time in your life.

    You advise us about the light and the bookcase on the hallway and that space is in fact really nice.

    • @JemimaRose
      @JemimaRose  Před rokem +1

      sometimes the lighting seems worse through the viewfinder than it does once i look at the footage afterwards. i’m glad it worked out in the end! 😊

    Definitely have to try out The Complete Short Stories of Oscar Wilde! So many short stories have been a miss for me lately but I love Oscar Wilde’s writing so maybe they will work for me :)

    Your classic collection looks like a dream of mine 😢 it's not easy to get hold of beautiful classic editions where I live. May I ask how are the printing quality and font size of the Oxford classics' compared to those of the Penguin black-spined classics?

    • @JemimaRose
      @JemimaRose  Před 10 měsíci +3

      i hope one day you can have the collection of your dreams... 🤍 i am personally a bigger fan of the penguin black spines. i prefer the paper quality & the overall aesthetic of them too. some people say that the oxford classics have better introductions/notes but i think this is still up for debate. penguin have a greater collection of works so if consistency is something you're after than maybe penguin would be preferred...?

    • @JemimaRose
      @JemimaRose  Před 10 měsíci +1

      i’m sorry to say that it’s actually an antique so i’m not entirely sure where we originally bought it! it would’ve been from eBay or an in-person auction house.

    how are all your books in perfect conditions? it makes me sad to see mine slowly yellow with time :((

    • @JemimaRose
      @JemimaRose  Před 8 měsíci

      i try to take care of them very well. i think it might help that i store them away from the light & try my best not to crack their spines!
