The Happy Reader, Issue 14 – Grace Wales Bonner

For avid readers and the uninitiated alike, The Happy Reader is a magazine-shaped book club to inspire and entertain.

A collaboration between Penguin Classics and Fantastic Man, the concept is simple: the first half is a long-form interview with a notable book fanatic and the second half explores one classic Book of the Season from an array of surprising and invigorating angles.

In this issue:
Ta Da! Issue 14 is here, marking five years of The Happy Reader! We’re thrilled to announce we have the fashion sensation whose collections arrive with their own ‘reading lists’ Grace Wales Bonneron the cover shot by Alasdair McLellan. .
In the second half of the magazine, we bring together an array of bizarre delights including a tortoise, forgotten poets and a series of nightmares from the likes of Jarvis Cocker, Jeanette Winterson and Lydia Davis. It’s a suitably strange look at Huysmans’ decadent masterpiece, AGAINST NATURE.
