Rosario de sonetos líricos
Rosario de sonetos líricos
Miguel De Unamuno
¥8.82
Unamuno se presentó como poeta cuando ya era conocido en otros campos, ya que su dedicación a la poesía brota en él tardíamente, pero pronto se convirtió en una práctica habitual, ya que, entre su primer poemario, Poesías (1907), y el Romancero del destierro (1928), publica siete libros. El rasgo distintivo de su poesía es el carácter confesional: él autor coincide con el sujeto lírico, lo que explica la diversidad de contenidos que trata y convierte su poesía en un testimonio de su evolución espiritual y artística.

Balaoo
Balaoo
Gaston Leroux
¥8.82
Ce roman commence comme un policier classique. Une série de meurtres terrorise un village d'Auvergne et une enquête commence, au cours de laquelle les principaux personnages se mettent en place : un vieux savant bizarre, sa fille - ravissante, bien s?r - son fiancé, un grand benêt de clerc de notaire, le domestique du savant et une famille de repris de justice, cachée dans les bois, composée de trois frères - les méchants de l'histoire et les suspects évidents, ainsi que de leur soeur, une sauvageonne. Puis le roman oblique vers le thème du savant fou, dont les créations échappent à son contr?le et sont à l'origine de désastres... De plus nous découvrons que M. No?l s'appelle en réalité Baloo et est amoureux fou, sans espoir, de la jolie fille... Un roman éclectique, qui part un peu dans tous les sens, comme cela arrivait parfois avec les feuilletons écrits au jour le jour, mais qui nous offre un certain nombre d'épisode complètement délirants qui valent la peine d'être lus.
Les Mohicans de Babel
Les Mohicans de Babel
Gaston Leroux
¥8.82
Dans le Paris débridé des année folles, alors que le gouvernement est aux abois, on ne parle que d'un mystérieux malfaiteur, tout-puissant, ?le Grand X?. Un riche banquier et homme politique, Milion-Lauenbourg, est le père d'une très jolie fille, Sylvie, amoureuse d'un député adversaire de son père, Claude Corbières. Celui-ci dirige la ligue anti parlementaire. Milion-Lauenbourg dirige ses affaires gr?ce à l'aide inestimable de M. Barnabé, aux allures de petit bureaucrate radin, mais qui en fait conna?t tout de la banque. Il a recours aux services de Dumont, chef de la Sureté, prototype du policier avide de pouvoir. D'autres comparses gravitent autour de ces personnages, hommes politiques, truands, parents... L'intrigue est foisonnante, délirante, les nuits de Paris sont pleines de stupre et de sang. L'auteur se livre à une féroce satire de la société de son temps et dénonce la médiocrité des élites, la dégénérescence de la noblesse et la corruption des politiciens.

Henry VI (Complete Plays)
Henry VI (Complete Plays)
William Shakespeare
¥8.82
The First Part of King Henry the Sixth is history play by William Shakespeare, believed written in approximately 1588–1590. It is the first in the cycle of four plays often referred to as "The First Tetralogy". The Second Part of King Henry the Sixth, or Henry VI, Part 2, is a history play by William Shakespeare believed written in approximately 1590-91. It is the second part of the trilogy on Henry VI, and often grouped together with Richard III as a tetralogy on The Wars of the Roses—the success of which established Shakespeare's reputation as a playwright. Henry the Sixth, Part 3, is a history play by William Shakespeare, believed written in approximately 1590, and set during the lifetime of King Henry VI of England. It prepares the ground for one of his best-known and most controversial plays: the tragedy of King Richard III (Richard III of England). It continues the action from Henry VI, Part 1 and Henry VI, Part 2, though they may not have been written in that order.
Pericles, Prince of Tyre
Pericles, Prince of Tyre
William Shakespeare
¥8.82
Pericles, Prince of Tyre is a play written (at least in part) by William Shakespeare and included in modern editions of his collected works despite some questions over its authorship, as it was not included in the First Folio. Many modern editors believe that Shakespeare is responsible for the main portion of the play after scene 9 that follows the story of Pericles and Marina, and that the first two acts, detailing the many voyages of Pericles, were written by a relatively untalented reviser or collaborator, possibly George Wilkins.

The Red Fairy Book
The Red Fairy Book
Andrew Lang
¥8.82
Andrew Lang's Fairy Books or Andrew Lang's "Coloured" Fairy Books constitute a twelve-book series of fairy tale collections. Although Andrew Lang did not collect the stories himself from the oral tradition, the extent of his sources, who had collected them originally (with the notable exception of Madame d'Aulnoy), made them an immensely influential collection, especially as he used foreign-language sources, giving many of these tales their first appearance in English. As acknowledged in the prefaces, although Lang himself made most of the selections, his wife and other translators did a large portion of the translating and telling of the actual stories. The Red Fairy Book is the second in the series.
Uno, nessuno, e centomila
Uno, nessuno, e centomila
Luigi Pirandello
¥8.82
Questo romanzo, l'ultimo di Pirandello, riesce a sintetizzare il pensiero dell'autore nel modo più completo. L'autore stesso lo definisce come il romanzo "più amaro di tutti, profondamente umoristico, di scomposizione della vita". Il protagonista Vitangelo Moscarda, infatti, può essere considerato come uno dei personaggi più complessi del mondo pirandelliano, e sicuramente quello con maggior autoconsapevolezza. Dal punto di vista formale, stilistico, si può notare la forte inclinazione al monologo del soggetto, che molto spesso si rivolge al lettore ponendogli interrogativi e problemi in modo da coinvolgerlo direttamente nella vicenda, il cui significato è senza dubbio di portata universale. A dispetto della sua lunga gestazione, l'opera non è né frammentaria né disorganizzata; al contrario, può essere considerata come l'apice della carriera dell'autore e della sua tensione narrativa.
The Poison Belt
The Poison Belt
Arthur Conan Doyle
¥8.82
The Poison Belt was the second story, a novella, that Sir Arthur Conan Doyle wrote about Professor Challenger. Written in 1913, roughly a year before the outbreak of World War I, much of it takes place--rather oddly, given that it follows The Lost World, a story set in the jungle--in a room in Challenger's house. This would be the last story written about Challenger until the 1920s, by which time Doyle's spiritualist beliefs had begun to affect his writing.

Un Rêve
Un Rêve
Ivan Turgenev
¥8.82
J'ETAIS l'unique souci de maman, et nos deux existences faisaient corps, pour ainsi dire. Ces relations entre parents et enfants ne sont pas toujours recommandables... il arrive même qu'elles soient néfastes. Ajoutez à cela que j'étais fils unique... et la plupart des enfants qui se trouvent dans mon cas ne re?oivent pas une éducation normale. En les élevant, les parents songent trop à eux-mêmes... Cela n'est pas bon. Je n'étais ni g?té, ni aigri (deux défauts qui guettent tous les enfants uniques), mais mon système nerveux avait été ébranlé prématurément. D'ailleurs, en général, ma santé laissait fort à désirer : j'avais hérité cela de ma mère, à qui je ressemblais beaucoup, à tous les points de vue.

Vladimir Petrovich Voldemar, a 16-year-old, is staying in the country with his family and meets Zinaida Alexandrovna Zasyekina, a beautiful 21-year-old woman, staying with her mother, Princess Zasyekina, in a wing of the manor. This family, as with many of the Russian minor nobility with royal ties of that time, were only afforded a degree of respectability because of their titles; the Zasyekins, in the case of this story, are a very poor family. The young Vladimir falls irretrievably in love with Zinaida, who has a set of several other (socially more eligible) suitors whom he joins in their difficult and often fruitless search for the young lady's favour.
