My Book of Indoor Games

Am ?nceput s? scriu acest text aproape imediat dup? moartea tat?lui meu. F?r? s?-mi dau seama, scriam cu m?nie ?i cu revolt?, de?i credeam c? ?mi impun o privire impar?ial?, de jurnalist, asupra evenimentelor, personajelor ?i a mea ?ns?mi. Recitind, ?n perioade lini?tite, m? ?ntrebam dac? cei din jurul meu nu erau ?i ei con?tien?i de clocotul meu interior ?i, dac? erau, de ce nu-mi spunea nimeni nimic. Pe parcursul anilor, din textul ini?ial nu a r?mas dec?t titlul, acest Whole Lotta Love pe care tata ?l asculta pe repeat, acas?. Cu voia sau f?r? voia mea, firele narative s-au contopit ?ntre ele ?i, ?n cele din urm?, mi-am scris propria poveste de dragoste. Tata cred c? m? ?n?elege, de unde e el. C?nd eram mai mic?, ?mi doream s? pot avea ?ncredere total? ?n cel care scrie ?i, dac? s-ar ?nt?mpla s? ne ?nt?lnim pe strad?, persoana scriitorului s? fie ca textul pe care ?l citisem ceva mai devreme. Nu v? pot cere ?ncrederea voastr? total? (de?i a? cam avea nevoie de ea! ?), dar sunt sigur? c?, dac? ne ?nt?lnim, ve?i recunoa?te ?n mine aerul din care e f?cut? Whole Lotta Love.

Don Quijote de la Mancha (ortografía y título original —1605—, El ingenioso hidalgo Don Quixote de la Mancha) es una de las obras cumbre de la literatura espa?ola y la literatura universal, el libro más traducido después de la Biblia, escrito por Miguel de Cervantes.La novela consta de dos partes: la primera, El ingenioso hidalgo don Quijote de la Mancha, fue publicada en 1605; la segunda, El ingenioso caballero don Quijote de la Mancha, en 1615.La primera parte se imprimió en Madrid, en casa de Juan de la Cuesta, a fines de 1604. Salió a la venta en enero de 1605 con numerosas erratas, a causa de la celeridad que imponía el contrato de edición. Esta edición se reimprimió en el mismo a?o y en el mismo taller, de forma que hay en realidad dos ediciones de 1605 ligeramente distintas. Se sospecha, sin embargo, que existió una novela más corta, que sería una de sus futuras Novelas ejemplares.

How to be Happy Though Married
￥8.09
The story of the three little pigs is a well-known European folk tale, with many adaptations and variations, some of them with a different number of little pigs or other animals. It is a typical coming of age story. Like many other fable and fairy tale heroes, the three little pigs leave home to seek their fortune in the beginning. Although the traditional tale of the houses built by the three little pigs has been retold and republished many times, Leslie Brooke’s illustrations are probably the most beautiful ever made for the story.

The Jungle Book
￥8.09
Vigyázat! Cselekményleírást tartalmaz. A Csontbrigádot Rejt? nem más m?veib?l ismert fortélyos stílusában írta: egyszer? b?nügyi regény ez. Az alaphelyzet egy megsértett gentleman-agreement játékára épül. Az idegenlégió viszontagságaiban megfáradt két barát – Henry Fécamp és John Carew – elhatározza, hogy egyikük a másik halála árán leszerel a légióból. A szabadító ?tlet Carewé: egyikük egy már elk?vetett gyilkosságot – a másik bizonyító feljelentésének segítségével – vállal magára. Az ?tleten túl a felkínálkozó szabadság is az ?vé: a fej vagy írás játék neki kedvez. De az erk?lcsi jóvátétel és a végs? igazság mégis Fécampé, mivel a regény végén kiderül, hogy a játékhoz ürügyül választott gyilkosságot Carew k?vette el. Fécamp meghurcoltatásának voltaképpen barátja b?n?s jelleme az oka, mint ahogy a f?h?ssel egyetemben, a Csontbrigád t?bbi szám?z?ttje is emberi vétkek miatt szenved – ártalanul.

The Civilization of Renaissance in Italy
￥8.09
Classic 19th century history book. According to Wikipedia: "Carl Jacob Christoph Burckhardt (May 25, 1818, Basel, Switzerland – August 8, 1897, Basel) was a historian of art and culture, and an influential figure in the historiography of each field.

Siegfried Giedion described Burckhardt's achievement in the following terms: "The great discoverer of the age of the Renaissance, he first showed how a period should be treated in its entirety, with regard not only for its painting, sculpture and architecture, but for the social institutions of its daily life as well."Burckhardt's best known work is The Civilization of the Renaissance in Italy (1860).
History of the Britons

According to Wikipedia: "Nennius was a Welsh monk of the 9th century. He has traditionally been attributed with the authorship of the Historia Brittonum, based on the prologue affixed to that work, This attribution is widely considered a secondary (10th century) tradition. Nennius was a student of Elvodugus, commonly identified with the bishop Elfodd who convinced British ecclesiastics to accept the Continental dating for Easter, and who died in 809 according to the Annales Cambriae. Nennius is believed to have lived in the area made up by present day Brecknockshire and Radnorshire counties in Powys, Wales. He lived outside the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms, isolated by mountains in a rural society."
Maria or the Wrongs of Woman
￥8.09
Novel by the pioneering champion of women's rights (and the mother of Mary Shelley, author of Frankenstein). According to Wikipedia: "Maria: or, The Wrongs of Woman is the 18th century British feminist Mary Wollstonecraft's unfinished novelistic sequel to her revolutionary political treatise A Vindication of the Rights of Woman (1792). The Wrongs of Woman was published posthumously in 1798 by her husband, William Godwin, and is often considered her most radical feminist work. Wollstonecraft's philosophical and gothicpatriarchal institution of marriage in eighteenth-century Britain and the legal system that protected it. However, the heroine's inability to relinquish her romantic fantasies also reveals women's collusion in their oppression through false and damaging sentimentalism. The novel pioneered the celebration of female sexuality and cross-class identification between women. Such themes, coupled with the publication of Godwin's scandalous Memoirs of Wollstonecraft's life, made the novel unpopular at the time it was published.Twentieth-century feminist critics embraced the work, integrating it into the history of the novel and feminist discourse. It is most often viewed as a fictionalized popularization of the Rights of Woman, as an extension of Wollstonecraft's feminist arguments in Rights of Woman, and as autobiographical." novel revolves around the story of a woman imprisoned in an insane asylum by her husband. It focuses on the societal rather than the individual "wrongs of woman" and criticizes what Wollstonecraft viewed as autobiographical."
