'Penguin Student Editions' have been specifically designed for readers who are studying a text in detail. They include a helpful introduction, character sketches, a text summary, a chronology, language notes and activities, and a selection of questions and topics for discussion and analysis.
'The Beach' is the most compelling adventure story of the last decade. It tells of a young traveller in Thailand, Richard, who is looking for that special, undiscovered place. When a fellow traveller dies, leaving Richard a map, he thinks he has found the island paradise of his dreams. And so he has, until his dreams become nightmares.
