A Child of the Jago
ISBN: 9781974170302 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This novel, first published in 1896, is the story of Dick Perrot, born and bred in the Jago; but it is also a brilliant portrait of the community. The Jago is a London slum where crime and violence are the only way of life, and from which there is no escape for the inhabitants. Only the characters themselves are fictional: Morrison's descriptions of the fearful physical conditions are based directly on what he saw. He conjures up an extraordinarily vivid picture of a world which, even as he wrote, was about to vanish in one of the first of the slum clearance schemes.

The Shadows Around Us - Authentic Tales of the Supernatural The incidents set forth in the ensuing pages are as completely testified to as written facts well may be-that is to say, infinitely more care has been taken to verify and substantiate them than is taken to authenticate the matter-of-fact news published in a daily newspaper and accepted by everybody without question. For several of the cases the compiler is indebted to the investigations of the Society for Psychical Research. THE VAULT AT AHRENSBURG, THE LICHWAKE AT MONIFIETH, THE STRANGE EXPERIENCE OF MR. ROBERT BRUCE, THE WRAITH OF...

There may have been others-cases which gave no indication of their connection with these; some of them indeed I may have told without a suspicion of their connection with the Red Triangle; but the first in which that singular accompaniment became apparent was the matter of Samuel's diamonds. The case exhibited many interesting features, and I was very anxious to report it, with perhaps even less delay than I had...

Tales of Mean Streets
ISBN: 9781517159665 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 84 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. It was considered an intrepid thing for Walter Besant to do when, twelve or thirteen years ago, he invaded the great East End of London and drew upon its unknown wealth of varied material to people that most charming novel, "All Sorts and Conditions of Men." Until then the West End knew little of its contiguous neighbor in the East. Dickens's kaleidoscopic views of low life in the South of London were manifestly caricatures of the slum specimens of human nature which he purposely sought and often distorted to suit his bizarre humor.
