Dubliners
ISBN: 9780451530417 / Angielski / Miękka (mass market paperbound / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. James Joyce's groundbreaking collection of short stories about the beloved city of his birth. Perhaps the greatest short story collection in the English language, James Joyce's Dubliners is both a vivid and unflinching portrait of "dear dirty Dublin" at the turn of the twentieth century and a moral history of a nation and a people whose "golden age" has passed. His richly drawn characters--at once intensely Irish and utterly universal--may forever haunt the reader. In mesmerizing writing that evokes rich imagery, Joyce delves into the heart of the city of his birth,...

The Prince and the Pauper
ISBN: 9780451528353 / Angielski / Miękka (mass market paperbound / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Two boys exchange their clothes and their lives in Mark Twain's classic satiric comedy. They are the same age. They look alike. In fact, there is but one difference between them: Tom Canty is a child of the London slums; Edward Tudor is heir to the throne of England. Just how insubstantial this difference really is becomes clear when a chance encounter leads to an exchange of roles...with the pauper caught up in the pomp and folly of the royal court, and the prince wandering, horror-stricken, through the lower depths of sixteenth-century English society. Out of the theme of...

Hard Times
ISBN: 9780451530998 / Angielski / Miękka (mass market paperbound / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Dickens's scathing portrait of Victorian industrial society.
Coketown, the depressed mill town that is the setting for one of Charles Dickens's most powerful and unforgettable novels, is all brick, machinery, and smoke-darkened chimneys. Its emblematic citizen, the schoolmaster Thomas Gradgrind, lives to impose his version of education: facts and statistics that feed the mind while starving the soul and spirit. Inflexible and unyielding, he places conformity above curiosity and logic over sentiment, only to see his philosophy warp and destroy the lives of his own family.... Dickens's scathing portrait of Victorian industrial society.

The Scarlet Letter
ISBN: 9780553210095 / Angielski / Miękka (mass market paperbound / 247 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Hailed by Henry James as "the finest piece of imaginative writing yet put forth in the country," Nathaniel Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter reaches to our nation's historical and moral roots for the material of great tragedy. Set in an early New England colony, the novel shows the terrible impact a single, passionate act has on the lives of three members of the community: the defiant Hester Prynne; the fiery, tortured Reverend Dimmesdale; and the obsessed, vengeful Chillingworth. With The Scarlet Letter, Hawthorne became the first American novelist to forge from our Puritan...

When Louis Ferreira, a missionary, allows hidden agendas, secret deals, and fanatic interpretation of church doctrine to cloud common sense, the buffalo hunt he organizes with a colleague, Phil Vermeulen, spirals out of control. It is one thing for a driven preacher to turn big game hunter. It is an entirely different narrative when a wounded 2,200-pound bull is turned into a killing machine. Only when the sun sets and their entire hunting party is placed in harm's way, including Vermeulen's eleven-year-old daughter, do the two men pause to reflect. But... A calling can consume...
