ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
Личность писателя и классика американской литературы Теодора Драйзера, автора знаменитой трилогии "Желание", в которую вошли "Финансист", "Титан" и "Стоик", стала культовой в мировой литературе с самого первого романа "Сестра Керри". В основу произведения легла подлинная история жизни сестры Теодора Драйзера Эммы. Восемнадцатилетняя Каролина, которую все называют Керри, приезжает из маленького городка к родственникам в Чикаго. Девушка полна радужных мечтаний и надежд, но поиски счастья в большом городе сбивают девушку с истинного пути. Опубликованное в 1900 году, произведение вызвало негодование критиков, назвавших его совершенно безнравственным.

The French Riviera of the mid-1920s is the new playground for rich Americans, among them elegant heiress Nicole Warren and her husband, ambitious psychiatrist Dick Diver.

Robinson Crusoe (Arcturus)

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
'It happened one day, about noon, going towards my boat, I was exceedingly surprised with the print of a man's naked foot on the shore…'
Thus Defoe describes the heart-stopping moment when - after years of solitude - the world's most famous shipwrecked mariner discovers that he is not totally alone on his island.
From its publication in 1719, and through many translations, Robinson Crusoe has been hailed as the classic adventure story. Although the inspiration came from a real-life castaway called Alexander Selkirk, the novel can be enjoyed as a tale of survival, of spiritual awakening, or as a mythic quest.

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
История развития литературы - понятие куда более обширное, чем можно предположить, и куда более сложное, чем может вообразить студент-первокурсник филологического факультета. Неизменно всякий выбор "лучших книг" и "обязательных к прочтению" писателей сопровождается беспощадным отсечением жемчужин мысли от одобренной нормы и "золотого стандарта". За бортом остается множество гениев, признанных и непризнанных, и шедевров мировой литературы, Книги серии "World Classics Books" - попытка расширить устоявшееся в умах понятие классических книг и обязательных для образованного человека авторов, предложив читателю произведения, о которых он либо совсем не слышал, либо знаком очень издалека. Однако представленные в серии труды - в некотором роде веховые этапы на сложном пути развития мировой литературы, без которых трудно составить представления о различных жанрах, литературных школах и целых эпохах развития мировой культуры.

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
Painstakingly restored from Tolkien’s manuscripts and presented for the first time as a fully continuous and standalone story, this paperback of the epic tale of The Children of Hurin will reunite fans of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings with Elves, dragons, Dwarves and Orcs, and the rich landscape and characters unique to Tolkien.
It is a legendary time long before The Lord of the Rings, and Morgoth, the first Dark Lord, dwells in the vast fortress of Angband in the North; and within the shadow of the fear of Angband, and the war waged by Morgoth against the Elves, the fates of Turin and his sister Nienor will be tragically entwined.
Their brief and passionate lives are dominated by the elemental hatred that Morgoth bears them as the children of Hurin, the man who dared to defy him to his face. Against them Morgoth sends his most formidable servant, Glaurung, a powerful spirit in the form of a huge wingless dragon of fire, in an attempt to fulfil the curse of Morgoth, and destroy the children of Hurin.

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
Tragedy did not wither her: it crowned her with majesty... Her life, in Keats's phrase, became 'a continual allegory', its strands interwoven with the story of a people. Indeed, her poems can be read in sequence as a 20th-century Russian chronicle.

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
Money makes the world go round for Stanley Featherstonehaugh Ukridge - and when there isn't enough of it, the world just has to spin a bit faster.
Ever on the lookout for a quick buck, a solid gold fortune, or at least a plausible little scrounge, the irrepressible Ukridge gives con men a bad name. Looking like an animated blob of mustard in his bright yellow raincoat, he invests time, passion and energy (but seldom actual cash) in a series of increasingly bizarre money-making schemes. Finance for a dog college? It's yours. Shares in an accident syndicate? Easily arranged. Promoting a kind-hearted heavyweight boxer? A snip.
Poor Corky Corcoran, Ukridge's old school chum and confidant, trails through these pages in the ebullient wake of Wodehouse's most disreputable but endearing hero and hopes to escape with his shirt at least.

Then look at what happens to young Mitchell Holmes, who misses short putts because of the uproar of the butterflies in the adjoining meadows. His career seems on the skids - but can golf redeem it?
