Penguin UK is releasing a massive (1248 page) omnibus that brings together all of Nancy Mitford’s novels this November. This is very exciting news and I look forward to importing this juggernaut, but it’s just such an utter shame that it’s going to be marred by the ucker-cucker little cartoons that appeared on their stand-alone editions of the major novels. For those interested in stand-alone editions of Highland Fling, Christmas Pudding, and Pigeon Pie (which Penguin isn’t doing), underdog publisher Capuchin Classics is completing their output of that trifecta this fall as well.
Now, if only Vintage would get the remaining three out to complete their übersexy set.
