A Tale of Two Cities. A Story of the French Revolution
Charles Dickens
A Tale of Two Cities is the second historical novel by Charles Dickens and it is one of his most tragic works. The plot centers on the years leading up to the French Revolution and culminates in the Jacobin Reign of Terror. The novel, first and foremost, follows several characters including Charles Darnay, a French once-aristocrat who falls victim to the indiscriminate wrath of the revolution despite his virtuous nature, and Sydney Carton, a dissipated British barrister who endeavors to redeem his ill-spent life out of his unrequited love for Darnays wife Lucie Manette. Other major characters include Dr. Manette (Lucies father), who was unjustly imprisoned in the infamous Bastille for many years under a lettre de cachet, and Madame Defarge, a female revolutionary with an implacable grudge against the aristocratic Evremonde dynasty. Here we see how general people can overthrow a government if they are tormented continuously. At the same time, this novel tells a love story too with special emphasis on the sacrificial attribute of Sydney Cartons character.

Katarzyna Olkowicz
Blaski i cienie życia Bohdana Smolenia. Trudno znaleźć osobę tak pełną skrajności jak Bohdan Smoleń jeden z największych artystów polskiej sceny. Utalentowany kabareciarz i aktor. Miłośnik zwierząt stroniący od ludzi. Postać komiczna i tragiczna zarazem. Wraz z Zenonem Laskowikiem stworzył niezapomniany duet w poznańskim kabarecie Tey, wywołując salwy śmiechu jak Polska długa i szeroka. Przez lata sprawiał, że na ustach milionów rodaków pojawiał się uśmiech. Blask sceny nie docierał jednak do jego życia prywatnego. A ono toczyło się w cieniu ogromnych tragedii śmierci syna i żony. A tam, cicho być! to biografia człowieka budzącego wiele kontrowersji, od zachwytów po żal i gorycz. Człowieka, który potrafił być dobry, ale i przykry dla osób dla niego ważnych. Angażującego się, by za chwilę od zbyt bliskich relacji uciekać. W ostatnich latach życia schorowanego i wręcz odpychającego. Człowieka, którego tak naprawdę niewiele osób znało i rozumiało. Człowieka, który być może nie znał i nie rozumiał sam siebie.
Lucy Maud Montgomery

A Tangled Web centers around a community consisting mainly of two families, the Penhallows and the Darks whose collective lives are thrown into chaos by the dying wish of matriarch Aunt Becky Dark. For several generations everyone in the Penhallow family has married someone in the Dark family. Now Aunt Becky, the eccentric old matriarch of the clan, has bequeathed her prized possession: a legendary heirloom jug. But the name of the jugs new owner will not be revealed for one year. This is a charming book set in Lucy Maud Montgomerys beloved Prince Edward Island. Its colorful characters, descriptive scenery and interesting plot that employs a mixture of humor, pathos and sweet sentiment make for a comfortable read that leaves behind a pleasant sense of satisfaction at its close.

Georg Ebers, Clara Bell
A nineteenth-century novel from a German Egyptologist and novelist who discovered the Egyptian medical papyrus in Luxor. Georg Ebers wanted to familiarize the public with the discoveries of Egyptologists. The novel really describes the hard life of Egypt in the 19th century. An unusual theme for the novel was chosen, but really interesting and exciting.
Fenton Ash
An exciting science fiction adventure, in which two Edwardian schoolboys Gerald Wilton and Jack Lawford journey on a trip to Mars, where they have various adventures and help to suppress a revolt. The story opens in the Southern Seas with the fall of what is at first taken for an immense meteorite, but really is a Martian airship. The heroes, in company with a few other denizens of this earth, are invited to return to Mars, and what they do and see there, make a tale well worth reading. This story is a simple variation on the theme of A Son of the Stars, but it is not a sequel thereto. Its most original feature is the spaceship used to transport the heroes, a compound or the organic and inorganic that qualifies as an early cyborg.
