Dartmoor Legacy

T.C. Bridges

At the Bar-Tor farm in Dartmoor, owned by young Robert Hamlin. Downstairs, on the red land of Devon, a porcelain clay deposit was found, the value of which, although not fantastic, was large enough to make searchers be interested in the possibilities of buying all the property.

Burmese Days. A Novel

George Orwell

Burmese Days is an early novel by Orwell, in which the future great English writer enters into a kind of literary confrontation with his no less brilliant predecessor, Kipling. The life of the British colonists in Burma, united in a sense of superiority over the natives, but internally divided, exhausted by snobbery and petty strife. The fate of the local inhabitants, who seem to have become Europeanized, but who have preserved deep inside the eastern mentality, inaccessible to the understanding of the British.

The Outlaw

Max Brand

Young Larry Lynmouth had been the most fabulous outlaw of them all. Now he was determined to go straight. But going straight wasnt that easy-not with ugly leeches like Jay Cress around, who couldnt believe any man was fool enough to be honest. Renowned Western writer Max Brand does it again in the eminently enjoyable novel The Outlaw. Packed with enough action, twists and turns to please even the most die-hard fans of the genre, the novel also addresses a wide range of important themes with insight and sensitivity. This classics appeal extends far beyond the core audience for Westerns give it to a yet-to-be-won-over friend or loved one, and soon theyll be clamoring for more.

Daniel Deronda

George Eliot

Crushed by a loveless marriage to the cruel and arrogant Grandcourt, Gwendolen Harleth seeks salvation in the deeply spiritual and altruistic Daniel Deronda. But Deronda, profoundly affected by the discovery of his Jewish ancestry, is ultimately too committed to his own cultural awakening to save Gwendolen from despair. George Eliots radical dual narrative constantly challenges all solutions and ensures that the novel is as controversial now, as when it first appeared.

Stanisław Ignacy Witkiewicz

Wydana w 1922 roku sztuka Stanisława Ignacego Witkiewicza przekracza granice realności i prawdopodobieństwa, łącząc w sobie groteskę, absurd oraz poważne rozprawy na tematy filozoficzne, społeczne czy egzystencjalne. Witkacy przedstawia swoje poglądy na temat religii, filozofii, sztuki, historii oraz społeczeństwa. Bohaterowie Mątwy to niespełnieni artyści, znudzeni zwyczajnym życiem, próbujący za wszelką cenę przełamać codzienną rutynę, aby zetknąć się z metafizyczną tajemnicą istnienia.
