Comfortable Classics is a growing collection of public-domain classics published under one imprint: novels, epics, plays, fairy tales, philosophy, science, and history. Every volume shares one series design; only the title lettering changes from book to book.
Every title is listed below and in the Library, grouped into six collections.
Most are. Every novel, play, poem, and other single work in the series is unabridged: the complete text, not a shortened version, and its page is marked “Unabridged.” A few volumes are collections or selections, such as the fairy tales and the short-story volumes, and are not marked that way.
Free ebooks are a wonderful way to read the classics, and we’re glad they exist. A printed copy does something different: it lives on the shelf, where children can find it and pick it up, and it can be underlined, marked up, and handed down with your notes still in the margins. Some stories deserve that kind of presence in the home.
The books are available on Amazon. This site does not sell anything. Each book's page here has a “View on Amazon” button that goes straight to that book's Amazon listing.
Each book links directly to its Comfortable Classics edition on Amazon, so you'll always find the right one.
It is the purpose behind the series: classics meant to be kept, studied, and handed down, so that a shelf of them becomes a lasting personal library.
