Stephen Russ Penguin Poetry A pair of Stephen Russ covers for the Penguin Poets series. These little gems of mid-century design and pattern are just another excuse to collect Penguin Books. Commissioned in the early 60s by Hans Schmoller who, with his wife Tanya, assembled one of the finest collections of patterned paper, now held by the V&A. #stephenruss #penguinpoets #tanyaschmoller #hansschmoller #pattern #surfacepattern @penguinartgroup @penguinukbooks @penguincollsoc

Penguin Poets Stephen Russ A pair of Stephen Russ patterned covers commissioned by Hans Schmoller for Penguin. Russ trained at the Royal College in the 1930s under Ravilious & Bawden and post war developed a series of covers for Penguin, including the design For Lady Chatterley. The poetry covers are particularly good, and still findable for a few pounds. #stephenruss #patternedpaper #surfacepattern #penguinpoets #hansschmoller #midcenturymodern

Having just finished Lockwood's memoir, which mentions this poetry collection, I figured it was the logical next read 📚❤️🦄 #books #read #reading #bookish #booklover #bibliophile #booklife #poetry #motherlandfatherlandhomelandsexuals #patricialockwood #penguinpoets #currentlyreading #bookstagram #booksofinstagram

The world will end again soon. From now on it’s late. Plan for the day: divest and spend everything, apologize, neaten, hope not to rise unto a morning stuck in its course exploding in sunlight as usual.

In honor of National Poetry Day we present to you “Doomsday/Rapture”, a hopeful albeit apocalyptic poem from Penguin Poets’ newest collection: It Shouldn’t Have Been Beautiful by Lia Purpura. Happy reading.
