Clarence
￥40.79
As Clarence Brant, President of the Robles Land Company, and husband of the rich widow of John Peyton, of the Robles Ranche, mingled with the outgoing audience of the Cosmopolitan Theatre, at San Francisco, he elicited the usual smiling nods and recognition due to his good looks and good fortune. But as he hurriedly slipped through the still lingering winter's rain into the smart coupe that was awaiting him, and gave the order Home, the word struck him with a peculiarly ironical significance.
Rasselas:Prince of Abyssinia
￥8.09
While the story is thematically similar to Candide by Voltaire, also published early in 1759 – both concern young men travelling in the company of honoured teachers, encountering and examining human suffering in an attempt to determine the root of happiness – their root concerns are distinctly different. Voltaire was very directly satirising the widely read philosophical work by Gottfried Leibniz, particularly the Theodicee, in which Leibniz asserts that the world, no matter how we may perceive it, is necessarily the "best of all possible worlds". In contrast the question Rasselas confronts most directly is whether or not humanity is essentially capable of attaining happiness. Writing as a devout Christian, Johnson makes through his characters no blanket attacks on the viability of a religious response to this question, as Voltaire does, and while the story is in places light and humorous, it is not a piece of satire, as is Candide.
The Secret Sharer
￥40.79
The story takes place at sea, near the Gulf of Siam. The young captain is unfamiliar with both his ship and his crew, having only joined their company a fortnight earlier. He soon encounters a naked swimmer holding onto the side ladder of the ship while he is alone at night on look-out duty. He helps the mysterious swimmer onto the boat and hides him in his cabin without the rest of the crew's knowledge.
American Fairy Tales
￥8.09
American Fairy Tales is the title of a collection of twelve fantasy stories by L. Frank Baum, published in 1901 by the George M. Hill Company, the firm that issued The Wonderful Wizard of Oz the previous year. ? L. Frank Baum was doing well in 1901, better than ever before in his life. He had written two popular books, Father Goose: His Book and The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, and was determined to capitalize on this success. In addition to American Fairy Tales, Baum's Dot and Tot of Merryland and The Master Key appeared in 1901. ? Publisher George M. Hill sold the serialization rights to the twelve stories in AFT to five major newspapers, the Pittsburgh Dispatch, the Boston Post, the Cincinnati Enquirer, the St. Louis Republic, and The Chicago Chronicle. The stories appeared between March 3 and May 19, 1901; the book followed in October. The first three papers used or adapted the book's illustrations for their publications of the stories, while the Chronicle and the Republic had their own staff artists do separate pictures.
Heart Attack for Gourmets
￥24.44
Wariat’s Diary (Diary of a Cranky Man). Novel in 13 chapters with consequences of documentation and with elements of absurdism, adventurism, and light fantasy!) The novel was awarded - International Literary Prize. Olesya Ulyanenko in 2012! The book HEART ATTACK FOR GOURMETS by Volodymyr Vakulenko-K. Consists of 13 monologs written from the perspective of different characters that often are not named, but defined in the heading of each chapter (a baby, father, an actor…). Regarding a plot, only several monologs intersect (e.g., ‘The Heart of a Kidnapped Son’ and ‘The Heart of a Disappointed Literary Man’), while the most of them barely resonate between themselves in mood and subject, sometimes they are contrasting. It is a known fact that each writer, first and foremost, writes about himself, if not about his biographical facts, he touches upon the issues that are meaningful to him, the situations that filled his brain for some reason and images that appeared in his subconsciousness. A part of monologs by Volodymyr Vakulenko-K. (VKV) Has an autobiographic nature but there are still plenty of those not related to author’s biography. The latter contains monologs dedicated to events of 1933 in the author’s native village and a story of a woman librarian who became a maniac and later, a victim, a young monk’s story about his relations with Satanists, an elf’s story about a prolonged bloodless war… VKV tries to talk not only about himself, and he tries to write in different genres: documentation and fantasy, thriller and nonsense fiction (Maybe due to this mixture of styles the work is called an ‘experimental novel.')

An Inadvertence
￥40.79
Strizhin, who normally leads a sober and regular life, comes home from a christening party where he had permitted himself to drink four glasses of vodka and a glass of wine, the taste of which suggested something midway between vinegar and castor oil. And of course spirituous liquors being like sea-water and glory: the more you imbibe of them the greater your thirst, Strizhin felt an overwhelming craving for another drink. He accidentally downed a glass of paraffin instead of vodka, and in desperate search for a doctor at 4 a.m. he found that a doctor is only readily found when he is not wanted.

A Millionaire of Rough-and-Ready
￥40.79
There was no mistake this time: he had struck gold at last! It had lain there before him a moment ago—a misshapen piece of brown-stained quartz, interspersed with dull yellow metal; yielding enough to have allowed the points of his pick to penetrate its honeycombed recesses, yet heavy enough to drop from the point of his pick as he endeavored to lift it from the red earth.
