Penguin Modern Classics began in 1961, when an unconventional Penguin editor - Tony Godwin - decided that authors of his time were producing books that deserved classic status just as much as the works of Dickens or Homer. Many of the early titles published in the list (including Franz Kafka's Metamorphosis, Carson McCuller's The Heart is a Lonely Hunter and F.Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby) are still considered landmark classics.Penguin Modern Classics have caused scandal and political change, inspired great films, and broken down barriers, whether social, sexual, or in the case of Ulysses, the boundaries of language itself. They remain the very best, most provocative, exciting, groundbreaking, inspiring, revolutionary works of the last 100 years - an organic, ever-growing and ever-evolving list of books that we believe will continue to be read by generation after generation.
