Anton Pavlovich Chekhov
The peculiarity of the authors works were his remarks, which embodied Chekhovs plan to convey to the reader the atmosphere of his book. The Book of the Cherry Orchard also begins with a remark, which contains a very important phrase: The room, which is still called the childrens room. It is simply impossible to depict this replica of the writer on stage, only the reader can imagine and understand that although much time has passed, but nothing has changed, and the room remains what it was, because time in this house seemed to stop or stop.

Fans of golden-era mysteries will relish the twists and turns of J. S. Fletchers The Chestermarke Instinct. This cleverly crafted mystery begins with what seems like a common enough occurrence: a bank manager is late for work one morning. But what first appears to be simply a matter of a missed train soon is revealed to be a much more vexing problem. Has the manager, formerly a pillar of honesty, absconded with the missing banks items, or has something more sinister occurred? When a body is found at the bottom of an abandoned lead mine, the latter seems more likely. Wallington Neale, the banks assistant manager, must discover whether it is a case of embezzlement or if the events the result of... The Chestermarke Instinct.

Honoré de Balzac
Two works of 1829 brought Balzac to the brink of success. Les Chouans, the first novel he felt enough confidence about to have published under his own name, is a historical novel about the Breton peasants called Chouans who took part in a royalist insurrection against Revolutionary France in 1799 that occurred in the region between Brittany and Nantes and Balzac places his story in this accurate historic contest. Balzac is one of Frances greatest storytellers and this particular thriller is one of his most spine-tingling ones. In it, an aristocrat, Marie de Verneuil, is sent by Joseph Fouché, the terrible minister of police to seduce and capture their leader, the Marquis de Montauran, known as the Guy (le Gars). She must be helped by a skillful, ambitious and unscrupulous policeman, Corentin. But Marie falls in love with her target...
