Welsh Fiction

Edward Jenkins dreams of opening a sports shop in the Welsh town of Pendragon Island. Then his ambitions become a possibility through his and his sister Margaret's inheritance, but Margaret has plans of her own. Can Edward stand up to her for the very first time?

If only they could find a way to reunite him with her mother Dora, they could finally have the home they've dreamed of.

When Maisie Vasey leaves her husband and brings her daughter to live on Pendragon Island, she causes unrest within more than one family.

When Maisie comes to work for Edward Jenkins at Montague Court, he soon makes his intentions clear, but she has very different ideas about where their friendship is heading. Lewis and his fiery wife Dora continue to row with each other, even though they both know that love still binds them together.

Elsewhere in Pendragon Island, Jennie Francis must rethink her life as she is forced to say goodbye to her business and her marriage. All she ever wanted was to run a successful shop, but now she will have to start again. How can she manage if she is completely alone?

Sulaco, provincia immaginaria della repubblica di Costaguana, vive sotto il battito incessante della miniera di San Tomé: è da lì che prende avvio Nostromo, capolavoro assoluto di Joseph Conrad e una delle più grandi epopee del Novecento. L'argento, motore segreto di potere, ambizione e rovina, accompagna e divora i destini di uomini e donne in un intreccio dove politica, passione e tragedia si confondono. Conrad intreccia tensione politica e inquietudine interiore, restituendo un romanzo che è insieme cronaca storica, allegoria morale e indagine dell'animo umano.

This collection contains 21 reviews of artistic events and artifacts which originally appeared between 1877 and 1889. Clearly on display is Wilde's comprehensive knowledge of contemporary painting, fashion, and literature, as well as his capacity to create paradoxical aphorisms, which is such a feature of more substantial works like The Picture of Dorian Gray and The Importance of Being Earnest.

Роман "Зеленые холмы Африки" увидел свет в 1935 году и еще больше упрочил славу писателя. Книга стала очередной отметкой в его послужном списке настоящего мужчины. Эта автобиографическая история основана на воспоминаниях Хемингуэя о сафари в африканских степях.

Впервые дебютный роман Эрнеста Хемингуэя "Фиеста" был опубликован в 1926 году, в США. И кто знает, не напиши Хемингуэй свою "Фиесту", возможно праздник Святого Фермина, проходящий с 6 по 14 июля в Памплоне, и не стал бы таким популярным событием, каким является сегодня.

The first part of the novel involves debates about rationalism and religion between a Professor Lucifer and a monk named Michael, while the rest of the narrative concerns dispute between a Jacobite Catholic named Maclan and an atheist socialist named Turnbull. Both hold fanatic opinions and prepare for a duel that is proposed but never fought, inspiring a slew of comic adventures with allegorical dimensions.

Après avoir purgé 20 ans de prison pour un meurtre qu'il n'a pas commis, un homme rentre chez lui pour se venger d'un pasteur local (le Doyen Maitland) qui savait qu'il était innocent mais qui n'a rien fait pour le défendre. Roman très réussi de Maxwell Gray en 1886. Le best-seller de l'époque, "The Silence of Dean Maitland", associe des descriptions évocatrices du paysage rural anglais, à l'image de George Eliot et de Thomas Hardy, à un scénario captivant, qui rappelle les meilleurs romans à sensation de l'époque.
