A Note to Our Readers

Like the fine wine in F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Beautiful and Damned (Introduction by Jay Parini, Afterword by Ruth Prigozy), classic literature gets better with age. A classic is timeless. It endures despite changing trends and dares to reach beyond the scope of its cultural moment. Each of our beloved Signet , from Edwin Abbott to Virginia Woolf, embodies that elusive and compelling staying power. Reacquaint yourself with the classic stories you’ve grown up with, like L.M. Montgomery’s Anne of Green Gables (Afterword by Jennifer Lee Carroll) and Andersen’s Fairy Tales by Hans Christian Andersen (Introduction by Poul Houe, Afterword by Joanne Greenberg), where each reading brings new discoveries. For characters who are timeless in a more literal sense, pick up J.M. Barrie’s Peter Pan (Afterword by Alison Lurie) for adventures with the boy who won’t grow up. Or test your courage with Bram Stoker’s Dracula in Signet Classic’s horror collection (which also includes Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein and Robert Louis Stevenson’s Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, as well as an Introduction by Stephen King) and stare down the Immortal Count—an old evil forever new. Or explore the dangers of cheating time in Oscar Wilde’s The Picture of Dorian Gray and Three Stories (Introduction by Gary Schmidgall, Afterword by Peter Raby). Some classics are windows into the past, such as The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, An American Slave by Frederick Douglass (Introduction by Peter J. Gomes, Afterword by Gregory Stephens) or Great Dialogues of Plato (Introduction by Matthew S. Santirocco, Translated by W.H.D. Rouse). But others can also provide warnings for the future, like George Orwell’s 1984 (Afterword by Erich Fromm), or celebrate the present, as in Passages: 24 Modern Indian Stories, Edited by Barbara H. Solomon and Eileen Panetta. But one thing never gets old—carving out time to relax and enjoy a Signet Classic!
