Buried Alive
ISBN: 9781515138624 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 156 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Excerpt from Buried Alive: A Tale of These Days
The peculiar angle of the earth's axis to the plane of the ecliptic - that angle which is chiefly responsible for our geography and therefore for our history - had caused the phenomenon known in London as summer. The whizzing globe happened to have turned its most civilized face away from the sun, thus producing night in Selwood Terrace, South Kensington. In No. 91 Selwood Terrace two lights, on the ground-floor and on the first-floor, were silently proving that man's ingenuity can outwit nature's. No. 91 was one of about ten thousand...

How to Live on 24 Hours a Day
ISBN: 9781605975900 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 52 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This preface, though placed at the beginning, as a preface must be, should be read at the end of the book. I have received a large amount of correspondence concerning this small work, and many reviews of it--some of them nearly as long as the book itself--have been printed. But scarcely any of the comment has been adverse. Some people have objected to a frivolity of tone; but as the tone is not, in my opinion, at all frivolous, this objection did not impress me; and had no weightier reproach been put forward I might almost have been persuaded that the volume was flawless A more serious...

How to Live on Twenty-Four Hours a Day
ISBN: 9781535441889 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 70 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In the book, Bennett addressed the large and growing number of white-collar workers that had accumulated since the advent of the Industrial Revolution. In his view, these workers put in eight hours a day, 40 hours a week, at jobs they did not enjoy, and at worst hated. They worked to make a living, but their daily existence consisted of waking up, getting ready for work, working as little as possible during the work day, going home, unwinding, going to sleep, and repeating the process the next day. In short, he didn't believe they were really living. Bennett addressed this problem by urging...

The Old Wives' Tale
ISBN: 9780141442112 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 624 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. First published in 1908, The Old Wives' Tale affirms the integrity of ordinary lives as it tells the story of the Baines sisters--shy, retiring Constance and defiant, romantic Sophia--over the course of nearly half a century. Bennett traces the sisters' lives from childhood in their father's drapery shop in provincial Bursley, England, during the mid-Victorian era, through their married lives, to the modern industrial age, when they are reunited as old women. The setting moves from the Five Towns of Staffordshire to exotic and cosmopolitan Paris, while the action moves from the subdued...

ISBN: 9781515138921 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Excerpt from The Price of Love: A Tale
In the evening dimness of old Mrs. Maldon's sitting-room stood the youthful virgin, Rachel Louisa Fleckring. The prominent fact about her appearance was., that she wore an apron. Not one of those white, waist-tied aprons, with or without bibs, worn proudly, uncompromisingly, by a previous generation of unaspiring housewives and housegirls But an immense blue pinafore-apron, covering the whole front of the figure except the head, hands, and toes. Its virtues were that it fully protected the most fragile frock against all the perils of the kitchen;... Excerpt from The Price of Love: A Tale

Edward Henry Machin (no longer known as Denry) is now aged 43 and although a successful businessman and head of a happy family, he is dissatisfied with his lot and wants a new challenge. A chance meeting in a local theatre presents him with an opportunity to build a theatre in London, in the area of Regent Street and Shaftesbury Avenue. He meets with various difficulties, which he overcomes in his usual way, a combination of hard work, various wiles and a pinch of luck. How he deals with a poetic author, and demanding actresses is told with the usual Bennett humour.
