The Black Tulip
ISBN: 9781533182593 / Angielski / Miękka / 230 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The story begins with a historical event - the 1672 lynching of the Dutch Grand Pensionary (roughly equivalent to a modern Prime Minister) Johan de Witt and his brother Cornelis, by a wild mob of their own countrymen - considered by many as one of the most painful episodes in Dutch history, described by Dumas with a dramatic intensity. The main plot line, involving fictional characters, takes place in the following eighteen months; only gradually does the reader understand its connection with the killing of the de Witt brothers.

Pot-Bouille est un roman d'Emile Zola publie en 1882, le dixieme de la serie les Rougon-Macquart. Le mot pot-bouille designait au xixe siecle en langage familier la cuisine ordinaire des menages, en gros synonyme de popote. Mais il n'est pas question ici de cuisine, sinon au sens figure: Zola veut en effet nous montrer l'envers du decor d'un grand immeuble parisien ou, derriere un luxe de facade, vivent des familles bourgeoises dont le comportement quotidien est aussi peu ragoutant qu'un mediocre brouet, un pot-bouille."

L'Assommoir: Les Rougon-Macquart #7
ISBN: 9781535028493 / Francuski / Miękka / 426 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. L'Assommoir est un roman d'Emile Zola publie en 1877, septieme volume de la serie Les Rougon-Macquart. C'est un ouvrage totalement consacre au monde ouvrier et, selon Zola, le premier roman sur le peuple, qui ne mente pas et qui ait l'odeur du peuple . L'ecrivain y restitue la langue et les m urs des ouvriers, tout en decrivant les ravages causes par la misere et l'alcoolisme. A sa parution, l'ouvrage suscite de vives polemiques car il est juge trop cru. Mais c'est ce realisme qui, cependant, provoque son succes, assurant alors la celebrite et la fortune de l'auteur."

Hrafnkel or the Ambiguities: Hard Cases, Hard Choices
ISBN: 9780198793038 / Angielski / Twarda / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. William Ian Miller presents a close reading of one of the best known of the Icelandic sagas, showing its moral, political, and psychological sophistication. Hrafnkel tells of a fairly simple feud in which a man rises, falls, and rises again with a vengeance, so to speak. The saga deals with complex issues with finely layered irony: who can one justifiably hit, when, and by what means? It does this with cool nuance, also taking on matters of torture and pain-infliction as a means of generating fellow-feeling. How does one measure pain and humiliation so as to get even, to get back to equal? ...
