Reader's note

Vintage Penguin books are extremely popular with good reason! The Horse's Mouth is a portrait of an artistic temperament. Its principal character, Gulley Jimson, is an impoverished painter who bothers little about the customary obligations and decencies, and lives a precarious existence in a sordid neighbourhood of South London. But although he is a bad citizen he is a good artist, so wholly preoccupied with his art that he is willing to endure any privation for its sake. This book is a fascinating character study and the classic orange horizontal stripe, means that it is perfect way to complete or start any Penguin collection.
