"Cool Air" is a short story by the American horror fiction writer H. P. Lovecraft, written in March 1926 and published in the March 1928 issue of Tales of Magic and Mystery.

He finally settles in a converted brownstone on West Fourteenth Street. Investigating a chemical leak from the floor above, he discovers that the inhabitant directly overhead is a strange, old, and reclusive physician. One day the narrator suffers a heart attack, and remembering that a doctor lives overhead, he climbs the stairs and meets Dr. Mu?oz for the first time.

The Girl Who Could Dance in Outer Space - An Inspirational Tale About Mae Jemiso
￥32.62
The Girl Who Could Dance in Outer Space is the second book in The Girls Who Could Series. It tells the tale of young Mae Jemison, the creative girl who became a doctor, an engineer, a dancer, and an astronaut. Mae Jemison teaches us that art and science are natural expressions of creativity and imagination. Nurture them both, and go where your dreams take you! The Girls Who Could is a fun, colorful series of stories about real women who have made a difference in the world through inspired action. By giving young girls examples of people who have done big, amazing things, children grow up with a template of achievement upon which to grow and expand their own dreams and goals. Praise for The Girl Who Could Talk to Computers: "Love love love this book! It is perfect for my small neice, who is always building and doing puzzles -- I can't wait for more books from this authors for kids." "This book is a huge hit at home with at my toy store. Kids love the simple, bright pictures. Grown-ups love the intelligently written rhymes that get across the main message and accomplishments of Grace Hopper's innovative life, without boring or confusing the children. There are sixteen, 4-line stanzas, each accompanied by an illustration. The book is perfect for young kids that are just starting to read, and I really like how it is geared towards inspiring girls, yet the drawings and story is not pink and frilly, so it can just as easily be read to boys, too. The main message of the book is that when you use your head "nothing's impossible, you can do it, you bet!""

The Galoshes of Fortune
￥9.24
I t was in Copenhagen, in one of the houses on East Street, not far from King's Newmarket, that someone was giving a large party. For one must give a party once in a while, if one expects to be invited in return. Half of the guests were already at the card tables, and the rest were waiting to see what would come of their hostess's query: "What can we think up now?" Up to this point, their conversation had gotten along as best it might. Among other things, they had spoken of the Middle Ages. Some held that it was a time far better than our own. Indeed Councilor of Justice Knap defended this opinion with such spirit that his hostess sided with him at once, and both of them loudly took exception to Oersted's article in the Almanac, which contrasted old times and new, and which favored our own period. The Councilor of Justice, however, held that the time of King Hans, about 1500 A.D., was the noblest and happiest age. While the conversation ran pro and con, interrupted only for a moment by the arrival of a newspaper, in which there was nothing worth reading, let us adjourn to the cloak room, where all the wraps, canes, umbrellas, and galoshes were collected together. Here sat two maids, a young one and an old one. You might have thought they had come in attendance upon some spinster or widow, and were waiting to see their mistress home. However, a closer inspection would reveal that these were no ordinary serving women. Their hands were too well kept for that, their bearing and movements too graceful, and their clothes had a certain daring cut. They were two fairies. The younger one, though not Dame Fortune herself, was an assistant to one of her ladies in waiting, and was used to deliver the more trifling gifts of Fortune. The older one looked quite grave. She was Dame Care, who always goes in her own sublime person to see to her errands herself, for then she knows that they are well done. They were telling each other about where they had been that day. The assistant of Fortune had only attended to a few minor affairs, she said, such as saving a new bonnet from the rain, getting a civil greeting for an honest man from an exalted nincompoop, and such like matters. But her remaining errand was an extraordinary one.

Ceea ce d? nuvelelor lui Slavici o pu?in obi?nuit? plin?tate ?i for?a de via?? este profunda cunoa?tere a sufletului omenesc ?n complexitatea lui ?i ?n mi?c?rile lui contradictorii. Aceast? cunoa?tere func?ioneaz? ?n modul cel mai firesc d?nd impresia c? Slavici ??i creeaz? personajele v?z?ndu-le dinl?untrul lor. Comportamentul lor nu e ?ntotdeauna logic - adesea chiar dimpotriv? mai ales ?n ceea ce prive?te analiza sufletului feminin ?n care Slavici r?m?ne un maestru - dar aproape niciodat? ?n marile lui reu?ite artistice nu d? impresia c? ar putea s? fie altul. Slavici se identific? cu personajele sale fiind legat cu l?untrul lor cu felul lor de a g?ndi ?i de a sim?i prin intime fire simpatetice. Iar acest fel de a g?ndi ?i de a sim?i e rezultatul unei observa?ii ?i medita?ii multiseculare asupra naturii umane. Slavici ?nf??i?eaz? cu mijloacele artistice ale scriitorului citadin analitic ceea ce poporul exprim? aforistic prin zic?torile ?i proverbele sale... Ovidiu Papadima
Cum s? scapi de anxietate
￥51.50
De peste 160 de ani, impozanta Cavendon Hall este re?edin?a a dou? familii ale c?ror destine s-au ?ntrep?truns inexorabil: aristocra?ii Ingham ?i slujitorii lor loiali, membrii familiei Swann Charles Ingham, al ?aselea conte de Mowbray, locuie?te aici cu so?ia lui Felicity ?i cu cei ?ase copii. Lady Daphne, cea mai frumoas? dintre cele patru fiice ale contelui, se preg?te?te s?-?i fac? debutul ?n ?nalta societate, iar acest eveniment capteaz? aten?ia ?ntregii familii. ?ns? cineva ?i-a pus ?n g?nd s? distrug? totul ? ?i a ales cel mai crud mod cu putin??. Consecin?ele pot fi dezastruoase at?t pentru via?a ?i reputa?ia frumoasei tinere, c?t ?i pentru ?ntreaga familie ?i pentru numele de Ingham. Re?ntoarcerea lui Hugo Ingham Stanton, v?rul primar al contelui, alungat de la Cavendon Hall cu ?aisprezece ani ?n urm? de c?tre propria mam?, va fi pentru Lady Daphne nu numai o salvare providen?ial?, ci ?i g?sirea unei iubiri pentru o via??. Sub amenin?area Primului R?zboi Mondial, familiile Ingham ?i Swann vor fi supuse unor ?ncerc?ri pe care nu le-ar fi crezut niciodat? posibile – loialit??i vor fi puse sub semnul ?ntreb?rii, secrete vor fi dezv?luite ?i iubiri vor fi tr?date. ?n acele vremuri pline de incertitudini, un singur lucru este sigur: pentru cele dou? familii, via?a nu va mai fi niciodat? la fel. Roman a c?rui ac?iune se desf??oar? pe o perioad? de ?aisprezece ani, ?ntre 1913 ?i 1929, Cavendon Hall nu-i va dezam?gi pe cititorii Barbarei Taylor Bradford. ?Fani Downton Abbey, preg?ti?i-v?! Ac?iunea urm?torului bestseller al Barbarei Taylor Bradford se petrece ?n Anglia edwardian?, unde membrii familiei Swann i-au slujit cu credin?? pe aristocra?ii Ingham vreme de secole.

Cred c niciodat scrisul nu mi-a produs atta plcere ca atunci cnd am scris ultima parte a romanului Noapte i zi.“ – Virginia Woolf Noapte i zi este libretul perfect al unei opere clasice n maniera comic, dar melancolic a lui Mozart, cu un oarecare adaos de disonane stilistice – cum st bine unui text modern.“ – Jane Marcus Romanul acesta mi pare a fi un exerciiu deliberat clasicizant. Conine tot ceea ce a caracterizat proza romanesc englez n ultimii o sut cincizeci de ani: ncredere n relaiile personale, recursul la scene umoristice secundare, accentul pe diferenierile sociale nesemnificative.“ – E.M. Forster Virginia Woolf a fost o mare scriitoare. Vocea ei este unic, la fel ca stilul ei. Opera ei exercit o influen activ asupra scriitorilor i una subtil asupra a ceea ce ne-am obinuit s ateptm de la literatura modern. [...] A fost o inovatoare care a redefinit romanul i a deschis calea evoluiilor sale ulterioare.“ – Jeanette Winterson Clasici moderni Litera pune laolalt scriitori moderni ale cror opere au devenit deja repere clasice.
