Mark Twain: The Contemporary Reviews
ISBN: 9780521390248 / Angielski / Twarda / 1999 / 670 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book is the first systematic, comprehensive gathering of the reviews (primarily in the United States and Britain) of Mark Twain's books published up until 1917. The reviews collected here give the reader an unfiltered sense of how Twain's books and his reputation looked to his audience at the time. In addition, by devoting attention to each of Twain's books, this volume moves away from the current, distorting emphasis on a small number of publications and thus provides a broader perspective on Twain's career.

The Gilded Age: A Tale of To-Day
ISBN: 9780140439205 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 512 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. First published in 1873, The Gilded Age is both a biting satire and a revealing portrait of post-Civil War America-an age of corruption when crooked land speculators, ruthless bankers, and dishonest politicians voraciously took advantage of the nation's peacetime optimism. With his characteristic wit and perception, Mark Twain and his collaborator, Charles Dudley Warner, attack the greed, lust, and naivete of their own time in a work which endures as a valuable social document and one of America's most important satirical novels. For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the...
