A Christmas Carol. In Prose. Being a Ghost Story of Christmas
Charles Dickens
A Christmas Carol in Prose, Being a Ghost Story of Christmas, commonly known as A Christmas Carol, is one of the most legendary stories by Charles Dickens. This edition contains the original 1843 illustrations by celebrated caricaturist John Leech. The story has long since become one of the most beloved stories in the English language. As much a part of the holiday season as holly, mistletoe, and evergreen wreaths, this perennial favourite continues to delight new readers and rekindle thoughts of charity and goodwill. The tale begins on a cold and bleak Christmas Eve in London, exactly seven years after the death of Ebenezer Scrooges business partner, Jacob Marley. Scrooge, an old miser, hates Christmas. He refuses his nephew Freds Christmas dinner invitation. At home that night, Scrooge is visited by Marleys ghost, who is forever cursed to wander the earth dragging a network of heavy chains, forged during a lifetime of greed and selfishness. Marley tells Scrooge that he has one chance to avoid the same fatehe will be visited by three spirits, one on each successive evening, and he must listen to them or be cursed to carry chains of his own, much longer than Marleys chains.

A cóż z tą Dzieciną... A cóż z tą Dzieciną będziem czynili, Pastuszkowie mili, że się nam kwili? Zaśpiewajmy Jej wesoło I obróćmy się z Nią w koło, Hoc, hoc, hoc, hoc. Podobno Dzieciątko że głodne, płacze; Dlatego tak z nami nierado skacze: Więc ja Mu dam kukiełeczkę I masełka osełeczkę, Pa, pa, pa, pa. Czy bez Matuleńki płacze Dziecina Więc Ją do miłego zaprośmy Syna: Mama, mama do Dziecięcia, Utul tego płacz Panięcia, Ma, ma, ma, ma. Czy dlatego płacze ma Złota Duszka, Że nie ma Józefa w domu staruszka: Wiec Józefa zawołajmy, I ciesząc Je, zaśpiewajmy: Ta, ta, ta, ta. [...]Autor nieznanyAutor nieznany - hasło to odnosi się zarówno do utworów plastycznych i literackich, których autor pozostaje bezimienny, choć jest zapewne konkretną osobą, o której można by ustalić jakieś przypuszczalne informacje (jak np. o Gallu Anonimie czy Mistrzu Pięknej Madonny z Wrocławia), jak również do utworów będących najprawdopodobniej dziełem pewnej zbiorowości, np. cechu. W przypadku sztuk wizualnych szczególny rodzaj anonimowości zachowują autorzy tworzący w pracowniach wielkich mistrzów, wykonujący ich polecania, pomniejsze partie większych zamówień. Niemal detektywistyczne technologie, m.in.: badania wieku podłoża, prześwietlenie warstwy malarskiej podczerwienią, pozwalają współcześnie coraz lepiej identyfikować twórców. Czasami jednak można wskazać tylko krąg kulturowy twórcy, centrum artystyczne, pod którego wpływem autor tworzył oraz oszacować czas powstania dzieła. W przypadku literatury do dzieł o autorze zbiorowym zaliczyć można utwory ludowe lub niektóre dzieła starożytne, których powstanie ginie w mrokach dziejów: zrodzone w kulturze oralnej, były powtarzane i zapamiętywane przez kolejnych słuchaczy. Z czasem ktoś zapisywał zapamiętany utwór, niekiedy powstawało kilka niezależnych zapisów. Po epoce antycznej, kiedy twórczość miała zapewniać autorowi indywidualną, ,,imienną" nieśmiertelność - na początku średniowiecza za cnotę twórców uznawano anonimowość. Sztuka miała służyć chwale Boga, religii, kraju - instytucjom trwalszym od znikomego i mało istotnego jednostkowego bytu.

Guy Boothby
There is an old saying that one half of the world does not know how the other half lives, but as far as this is true, very few of us really understand. In the East, indeed, it is almost amazing. There are people involved in trade, some of whom are very profitable, about whom the world as a whole has never heard of, and which an ordinary Englishman, in all likelihood, would refuse to believe, even if the most reliable evidence had been provided before him.
Fred M. White
Frederick Merrick White has written many novels or short stories, many related to London. Modest stories in his spirit. A Clue in Wax is a simple, kind story. The story that even in a dark London place a bright life can occur.

BEHOLD! cried Sabul Ahmid, with an upward sweep of his bare, brown arm, behold the Sacred Temple of the people of Astrea! I stood up in the boat, my portfolio under my arm. High on the mountains side, crowning a thick mass of laurel undergrowth, and flanked by a grove of deep, cool, byana trees, was the building to which my servant was pointing. The material whereof it was fashioned I could not at that distance determine. Only in the broad, tropical sunlight it flashed forth, a glorious and spotless white, as flawless and perfect as the purest marble or alabaster. Little minarets rose from the flat roof; and flowering shrubs, planted along the mountain terrace above, drooped about it, a brilliant scintilla of purple coloring. My fingers began to crave for my pencil. I turned to my guide with beaming face.

Jack London
Life and adventures during the Klondike Gold Rush are breathtakingly realistic. Frona Wells, the main character of the novel, is a strong, intelligent, courageous and at the same time unusually charming character in a word, a woman who is able to think, love, fight and share trials along with the best of men. Who is worthy of the hands and hearts of a confident and independent ruler of the North?
Jack London

Thomas Maple lives on Crystal Palace Road with his niece Verity. He works for a firm of bank note engravers. However, the dollar bills he shows Wentworth Gold are forgeries perfect except for the missing Treasury sign. When Verity meets her new employer she develops serious misgivings, and arriving back home she can hear a menacing voice. "A Debt Discharged" is a novel about forged dollar bills and a young girls investigations into her suspicious new employer. These were largely adventure narratives with elements of crime or mystery, and usually combined a bombastic sensationalism with hammy violence.
