About Us
| Follow the Twittering monkey Capuchin Classics are "Books to Keep Alive". A driving sense of discovery lies at the heart of Capuchin: reviving great works of fiction which have been unjustly forgotten or neglected. Our ethos is to restore a richness to the canon in an era of relative blandness, with each book introduced afresh by a well known champion. The early Capuchin titles included Michael Arlen’s captivating evocation of the world of the 1920s The Green Hat; Tom Stacey’s gem of a love story and Fleet Street lore The Man Who Knew Everything (originally published and filmed as Deadline); and GK Chesterton’s riotous forecast of rebellious London, The Napoleon of Notting Hill. Some later titles embraced the work of contemporary writers such as Stephen Benatar (When I was Otherwise) and Julian Mitchell (The Undiscovered Country) and also included a hugely successful trio of Nancy Mitford novels. |
