ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
Jane Eyre ranks as one of the greatest and most perennially popular works of English fiction. Although the poor but plucky heroine is outwardly of plain appearance, she possesses an indomitable spirit, a sharp wit and great courage.
She is forced to battle against the exigencies of a cruel guardian, a harsh employer and a rigid social order. All of which circumscribe her life and position when she becomes governess to the daughter of the mysterious, sardonic and attractive Mr Rochester.
However, there is great kindness and warmth in this epic love story, which is set against the magnificent backdrop of the Yorkshire moors. Ultimately the grand passion of Jane and Rochester is called upon to survive cruel revelation, loss and reunion, only to be confronted with tragedy.

The Great Gatsby (Wordsworth)

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
Generally considered to be F. Scott Fitzgerald's finest novel, The Great Gatsby is a consummate summary of the "roaring twenties", and a devastating expose of the ‘Jazz Age'.
Through the narration of Nick Carraway, the reader is taken into the superficially glittering world of the mansions which lined the Long Island shore in the 1920s, to encounter Nick's cousin Daisy, her brash but wealthy husband Tom Buchanan, Jay Gatsby and the mystery that surrounds him.
The Great Gatsby is an undisputed classic of American literature from the period following the First World War and is one of the great novels of the twentieth century.

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
Considered by many to be Dickens' finest novel, Great Expectations traces the growth of the book's narrator, Philip Pirrip (Pip), from a boy of shallow dreams to a man with depth of character. From its famous dramatic opening on the bleak Kentish marshes, the story abounds with some of Dickens' most memorable characters. Among them are the kindly blacksmith Joe Gargery, the mysterious convict Abel Magwitch, the eccentric Miss Havisham and her beautiful ward Estella, Pip's good-hearted room-mate Herbert Pocket and the pompous Pumblechook. As Pip unravels the truth behind his own 'great expectations' in his quest to become a gentleman, the mysteries of the past and the convolutions of fate through a series of thrilling adventures serve to steer him towards maturity and his most important discovery of all - the truth about himself.

One Hundred Years Of Solitude (Penguin)

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
One Hundred Years of Solitude tells the story of the rise and fall, birth and death of the mythical town of Macondo through the history of the Buendia family. It is a rich and brilliant chronicle of life and death and the tragic comedy of man. In the noble, ridiculous, beautiful, and tawdry story of the Buendia family one sees all mankind, just as in the history, myths, growth, and decay of Macondo one sees all of Latin America. Love and lust, war and revolution, riches and poverty, youth and senility-the variety of life, the endlessness of death, the search for peace and truth-these, the universal themes, dominate the novel.

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
Говорить о Петре Александровиче Нилусе просто как о художнике – мало. Выходец из знатной семьи, он был типич- ным (в превосходном смысле слова) представителем сво- его времени – Серебряного века русской культуры, – оста- вив нам не только богатое живописное, но и литературное наследие. Внук генерала, участника войны 1812 года, Петр Нилус был известным художником, особенно в Одессе, где он в юности учился в художественной школе. А вот учеба в Санкт-Петербургской академии художеств закончилась для Нилуса быстро. Поступив в академию в 1889 году, он через год покинул ее, чтобы заняться самостоятельной работой. Совершил столь смелый поступок Нилус по совету Ильи Репина: мэтр увидел в молодом художнике вполне сформировавшуюся творческую индивидуальность и посоветовал оставить учебу, вернуться в родной город, «нанять мастерскую и работать»... Творчество Нилуса отражает неспокойное время конца XIX и начала ХХ века. И лишь в первом десятилетии ХХ века, после зарубежных поездок и знакомства с новым современ ...

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
В нашей стране великий американский писатель Марк Твен (1835—1910) известен прежде всего как автор бессмертных «Приключений Тома Сойера» и «Приключений Гекльберри Финна», но его блестящий талант юмориста и сатирика в первую очередь воплотился в многочисленных рассказах, которые в последние годы почти не издавались в России. Предлагаемый сборник, в котором представлены образцы лучших рассказов, написанных Твеном за сорок с лишним лет, призван заполнить этот пробел.

'One of the most compassionate of all writers...you feel a kind of agony of helpless tenderness in the writer for all troubled souls’ The Times
Jude Fawley is a young man who longs to better himself and go to Christminster University. However, poverty forces him into a job as a stonemason and an unhappy marriage. When his wife leaves him Jude moves to Christminster determined to follow his dream. There he meets and falls for his free-spirited cousin, Sue Bridehead. They refuse to marry, much to the disapproval of the community around them. In this heartbreaking story Hardy shows the devastating effects of social prejudice and oppression.
The novel caused outrage when it was published in 1895 and, as a result, was the last novel Hardy ever wrote.

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
Discover this beloved masterpiece of nature writing that is a hymn to creation and to the power of the individual to do their bit to change the world for the better.
In 1910, while hiking through the wild lavender in a wind-swept, desolate valley in Provence, a man comes across a shepherd called Elzeard Bouffier. Staying with him, he watches Elzeard sorting and then planting hundreds of acorns as he walks through the wilderness.
Ten years later, after surviving the First World War, he visits the shepherd again and sees the young forest he has created spreading slowly over the valley. Elzeard's solitary, silent work continues and the narrator returns year after year to see the miracle he is gradually creating: a verdant, green landscape that is a testament to one man's creative instinct.
A beautiful story of hope, survival and selflessness, The Man Who Planted Trees resonates as strongly with readers today as when it was first published.

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
HarperCollins is proud to present its incredible range of best-loved, essential classics.
‘Phileas Fogg was one of those mathematically exact people, who, never hurried and always ready, are economical of their steps and their motions. He never made one stride too many, always going by the shortest route. He did not give an idle look. He did not allow himself a superfluous gesture.’
When Phileas Fogg wagers a bet that he can travel across the globe in just 80 days, little does he know about the epic journey that he is about to undertake. With his faithful French servant, Passepartout, Phileas Fogg embarks on the adventure of a lifetime, travelling across four continents by whatever means he can – train, elephant, steam ship – and experiencing endless surprises and mishaps along the way.
