Cruel Barbara Allen
ISBN: 9781514384039 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 34 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Christopher was a fiddler and a man of genius. Educated people do not deny the possibility of such a combination; but it was Christopher's misfortune to live amongst a dull and bovine-seeming race, who had little sympathy with art and no knowledge of an artist's longings. They contented themselves, for the most part, with the belief that Christopher was queer. Perhaps he was. My experience of men of genius, limited as it may be, points to the fact that oddity is a characteristic of the race.

Despair's Last Journey
ISBN: 9781514323373 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. A solitary passenger alighted from the train, and many people looked curiously after him. The mulatto porter handed to the platform a well-battered portmanteau, which was plastered thickly over with luggage-labels and the advertising tickets of hotels in every quarter of the globe. A great canvas bag followed, ornamented in like fashion. Then from the baggage-van an invisible person tumbled, a canvas bale. The coffee-coloured mulatto held out a grayish-white palm for the quarter-dollar the passenger was ready to drop into it, and stepped back to the platform of the car.

The Romance Of Giovanni Calvotti
ISBN: 9781514323243 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 46 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. I live in an attic. I am in the immediate neighbourhood of a great tavern and a famous place of amusement. The thoroughfare on which I can look whilst I sit at my window is noisy with perpetual traffic. In the midst of London I am more of a hermit than is that pretentious humbug who waves his flag at passing steamers from his rock in the AEgean. I am not a hermit from any choice of mine, or from any dislike of men and women. I am not a hermit because of any dislike which men and women may entertain for me. In my time I have been popular, and have had many friends."

" ...]life went unappreciated, and that his long-suffering devotion and the passion of jealousy which at length overcame him might have furnished Shakspeare himself with a theme as terrible as he found in 'Othello.' Anyway, the man was to be hanged and I was deputed to attend the execution. At that time I had never been a witness at a death scene. I have seen thousands hurried out of life since then; and though even now I should ...]."

Julia And Her Romeo: A Chronicle Of Castle Barfield
ISBN: 9781517700966 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 42 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In the year eighteen hundred and twenty, and for many years before and after, Abel Reddy farmed his own land at Perry Hall End, on the western boundaries of Castle Barfield. He lived at Perry Hall, a ripe-coloured old tenement of Elizabethan design, which crowned a gentle eminence and looked out picturesquely on all sides from amongst its neighbouring trees. It had a sturdier aspect in its age than it could have worn when younger, for its strength had the sign-manual of time upon it, and even its hoary lichens looked as much like a prophecy as a record.

In Direst Peril
ISBN: 9781514323922 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 130 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. It is not often that an honorable man commits a theft and yet leaves no stain upon his honor. It can happen still less often that a man of honor robs the lady he loves and honors above all womankind, and wins her hand in marriage by the act. Yet before we were married I robbed my wife of forty thousand pounds, breaking into her house to steal it; and here-now that we are both old-she is still so proud of me for having done that, that she must needs make me tell the story. A better writer would have done it better, but my wife has polished my rough phrases; and, at any rate, the plain truth...

Bulldog And Butterfly
ISBN: 9781514323281 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 48 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Castle Barfield, Heydon Hey, and Beacon Hargate form the three points of a triangle. Barfield is a parish of some pretensions; Heydon Hey is a village; Beacon Hargate is no more than a hamlet. There is not much that is picturesque in Beacon Hargate, or its neighbourhood. The Beacon Hill itself is as little like a hill as it well can be, and acquires what prominence it has by virtue of the extreme flatness of the surrounding country.

Recollections
ISBN: 9781514384015 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 76 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. I remember that in a fit of petulance at some childish misdemeanour, my mother once told me that I came into the world on the unlucky day of the fool's month. It was her picturesque way of saying that I was born on the thirteenth of April. I have often since had occasion to think that there was a wealth of prophetic wisdom in the phrase which neither she nor I suspected at the time.

VC - A Chronicle of Castle Barfield and of the Crimea
ISBN: 9781514323342 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 84 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The people of Castle Barfield boast that the middle of their High Street is on a level with the cross of St. Paul's Cathedral. The whole country-side is open, and affords a welcome to storm from whatever corner of the compass it may blow. You have to get right away into the Peak district before you can find anything like an eminence of distinction, though the mild slopes of Quarry-moor and Cline, a few miles to the westward, save the prospect from complete monotony. East, and a trifle to the north, rises Beacon Hargate, on the top whereof one of the innumerable bonfires which warned England...

Schwartz: A History
ISBN: 9781514323205 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 32 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. I was expatriated by a man with an axe. The man and the axe were alike visionary and unreal, though it needed a very considerable effort of the will to hold them at mental arm's length. I had work on hand which imperatively demanded to be finished, and I was so broken down by a long course of labour that it was a matter of actual difficulty with me when I sat down at my desk of a morning to lay hold of the thread of last night's work, and to recall the personages who had moved through my manuscript pages for the past three or four months.
