Carolyn Thompson’s new body of work, Post Moderns, is based on the 50 texts found in the Penguin Modern Box Set (2018), which celebrates the pioneering spirit of Penguin’s publishing. The collection includes seminal works by Samuel Beckett, Truman Capote, Allen Ginsberg, Dorothy Parker, George Simenon, and Susan Sontag amongst others.

A solo exhibition of the full fifty works will be held at Laurence Sterne Trust, Shandy Hall, York, from 8 September until 4 October 2019, and Eagle Gallery, London in February 2020.
