The Last Ride
￥8.09
Vaya is an immortal Valkyrie and favorite daughter of Odin All Father, sworn to carry dead heroes from the battlefields of Earth to live forever in Valhalla. One day, she intervenes on the battlefield to save the life of a soldier who has captured her heart, and is forced by Odin to choose between immortality and the man she loves. Vaya chooses love, not knowing that the hardest choice still lies ahead of her. "…exemplifies the best elements of Douglas Smith’s writing. A Valkyrie falls for her hero, gives up her immortality for him then has to make that inevitable and awful choice afterwards. As always, even for such a brief time, there is so much life in these characters. I don’t bother to marvel at how quickly I come to care for Douglas Smith’s people anymore, it’s a given." —SF Crowsnest Reviews "A gripping portrayal of Vaya, a Valkyrie, and the ultimate sacrifices one makes for love." —SFRevu

"A very different sort of tale. ... A cosmic story of gods which seems to be inspired by the works of Michael Moorcock, and I think he would not be ashamed of it." —SF Crowsnest Reviews "A tale of epic love when a mortal gets caught between a battle of the gods. Smith reminds us that we have the potential to change the world around us and that self-sacrifice can be a means of making the world around us better." —Speculating Canada "The descriptions here have cosmic sweep…" —Locus Online

The Merchant of Venice
￥8.82
The Merchant of Venice is a play by William Shakespeare, believed to have been written between 1596 and 1598. Although classified as a comedy in the First Folio, and while it shares certain aspects with Shakespeare's other romantic comedies, the play is perhaps more remembered for its dramatic scenes, and is best known for the character of Shylock. The title character is the merchant Antonio, not the Jewish moneylender Shylock, who is the play's most prominent and more famous villain. Though Shylock is a tormented character, he is also a tormentor, so whether he is to be viewed with disdain or sympathy is up to the audience (as influenced by the interpretation of the play's director and lead actors). As a result, The Merchant of Venice is often classified as one of Shakespeare's problem plays.

The Taming of the Shrew
￥8.82
The Taming of the Shrew is a comedy by William Shakespeare. It was one of his earlier plays, believed to have been written between 1590 and 1594. The play begins with a framing device in which a drunkard is deceived into thinking he is a nobleman who then watches the "play" itself, which depicts a nobleman, Petruchio, who marries an outspoken, intelligent, and bad-tempered shrew named Katherina. Petruchio manipulates and "tames" her until she is obedient to his will. The main subplot features the courting of Katherina's more conventional sister Bianca by numerous suitors.

Marina ?vetaieva se distinge printr-o scriitur? accentuat personal?, nu numai ?n poezie, dar ?i ?n proz?. Este vorba de stilistica ei nervoas?, abrupta, sincopata, chiar ?i ortografic inconfundabil?, cu multiple linii de pauz? ori intercal?ri neuzuale de paranteze, exclama?ii ?i altele. Care s? fie, deci, cuv?ntul nimerit pentru a surprinde particularitatea acestei crea?ii? I-am spus: stare patetic?. ?i pot spune: stare febril?. I-am spus: radicalitate. ?i pot spune: frenezie. ?i via?a, ?i opera ?vetaievei febriciteaz?. Ele repudiaz?, f?r? ?ncetare, situa?iile medii, mediocre, cotidiene, cumin?i. ...Dac? excesul poate periclita via??, excesivul poate salva arta. Excesivul e aici o supralicitare a d?ruirii, o hipertrofie a ata?amentului. ?vetaieva smulge arta din str?mtor?rile ei, ale ?vetaievei ?i ale artei. E ca o hiperbola a omului, ca o dovada a demnit??ii rec??tigate: prin arta subumanul trece ?n sublim. Crez?nd ?n art?, ?vetaieva crede ?n umanitate, ?n ?ansa nemuririi ei palpabile. Dar transgresarea mor?ii ea o stoarce din vecin?tatea mor?ii; dintr-o via?? ne?ncetat periclitat? de absolutismele ei. Via?a nu e tr?it? pe m?sura artei, s-o oblig?m la nem?surare! – ar putea fi deviza ei, ultimul ei mesaj.
