A Primer of the Novel: For Readers and Writers
ISBN: 9780810857087 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. When the first edition of David Madden's A Primer of the Novel: For Readers and Writers was published more than twenty-five years ago, there were no other books of its kind available. Since then, many authors and editors have produced works that attempt the same comprehensive coverage of the genre. However, these works tend to be either written solely for writers or solely for readers. More often than not, those written for readers tend to be aimed at advanced students or critics of the novel. In this revised edition, David Madden, Charles Bane and Sean Flory have produced an updated work...

Tales of Sheringham's Level Crossing
ISBN: 9781449003548 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 70 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The North Norfolk Railway is a heritage steam railway which has been in operation for over 40 years. The railway is separated from the national railway system by a tantalising 300 yards where it crosses a busy main road. For many years the railway company has had aspirations to link up to the main line by re-opening the level crossing thus allowing tourist and charter trains to reach the heritage railway from all over the UK. It is now going to happen. This book however describes the occasions when the crossing was used and in one particular case after the level crossing had been removed. The...

The Mystery of Edwin Drood (Completed by David Madden)
ISBN: 9780956422330 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 462 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. To mark the bicentenary of the birth of Charles Dickens in 2012, Unthank Books are publishing Sir David Madden's masterful new completion of THE MYSTERY OF EDWIN DROOD, Dickens' last, and unfinished novel. In a work of incredible literary ventriloquism David Madden renders the greatest homage he can to the great author by creating an ending as faithful to Dickens' written intentions as possible. Closely following the clues clearly laid down by Dickens in his sadly incomplete version, David Madden seamlessly continues the story with a stunningly similar repertoire of comedy, psychological...
