The Moonstone
ISBN: 9781847494221 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 512 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. When Rachel Verinder s legacy of a priceless Indian diamond is stolen, all the evidence indicates that it is her beloved, Franklin Blake, who is guilty.

Basil
ISBN: 9781909735002 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 226 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Wilkie Collins' novel 'Basil' is regarded as the inspiration for the later 'sensation novel' and ultimately today's 'detective genre'. The book produced a furore when first published in 1852, Shocked by this frank tale of secret marriage, betrayal, madness and mortality, the critics and self-appointed upholders of Victorian values tore into the work, describing the book as 'a tale of criminality, almost revolting from its domestic horrors. The vicious atmosphere ... weighs on us like a nightmare'. Seen from today's perspective 'Basil' is a perceptive exploration of nineteenth-century...

Armadale
ISBN: 9781544070940 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 734 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In acknowledgment of the services which he has rendered to the cause of literature by his -Life of Goldsmith;- and in affectionate remembrance of a friendship which is associated with some of the happiest years of my life. Readers in general-on whose friendly reception experience has given me some reason to rely-will, I venture to hope, appreciate whatever merit there may be in this story without any prefatory pleading for it on my part. They will, I think, see that it has not been hastily meditated or idly wrought out. They will judge it accordingly, and I ask no more.

At the request of a person who has claims on me that I must not disown, I consent to look back through a long interval of years and to describe events which took place within the walls of an English prison during the earlier period of my appointment as Governor. Viewing my task by the light which later experience casts on it, I think I shall act wisely by exercising some control over the freedom of my pen. I propose to pass over in silence the name of the town in which is situated the prison once confided to my care. I shall observe a similar discretion in alluding to individuals-some dead,...

A Rogue's Life
ISBN: 9781421888903 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. I AM going to try if I can't write something about myself. My life has been rather a strange one. It may not seem particularly useful or respectable; but it has been, in some respects, adventurous; and that may give it claims to be read, even in the most prejudiced circles. I am an example of some of the workings of the social system of this illustrious country on the individual native, during the early part of the present century; and, if I may say so without unbecoming vanity, I should like to quote myself for the edification of my countrymen.
