￥8.82

General Heatherstone is nervous to the point of being paranoid. As the story unfolds, it becomes evident that his fears are connected with some people in India whom he has offended somehow. People hear a strange sound, like the tolling of a bell, in his presence, which seems to cause the general great discomfort. Every year his paranoia reaches its climax around the fifth of October, after which date his fears subside for a while. After some time there is a shipwreck in the bay and among the survivors are three Buddhist priests who had boarded the ship from Kurrachee.
The Blue Fairy Book
￥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 Blue Fairy Book assembled a wide range of tales, with seven from the Brothers Grimm, five from Madame d'Aulnoy, three from the Arabian Nights, and four Norse stories, among other sources.

The novel is a robinsonade—a play on Daniel Defoe's 1791 novel Robinson Crusoe.
20000 lieues sous les mers
￥8.82
Ce roman, parmi les plus célèbres et des plus traduits de notre littérature, appara?t sans conteste comme une des oeuvres les plus puissantes, les plus originales et les plus représentatives de Jules Verne. Tout commence en 1866: la peur règne sur les océans. Plusieurs navires prétendent avoir rencontré un monstre effrayant.

Elle emporte notamment le professeur Aronnax, fameux ichthyologue du Muséum de Paris, son domestique, le dévoué Conseil, et le Canadien Ned Land, ?roi des harponneurs?.

The Ebony Frame
￥8.82
"""Oh! my dear, my dear, how shall I pass the hours till I hold you again?"" No thought, then, of my whole life's completion and consummation being a dream. I staggered up to my room, fell across my bed, and slept heavily and dreamlessly. When I awoke it was high noon. Mildred and her mother were coming to lunch. I remembered, at one o'clock, Mildred coming and her existence. Now indeed the dream began. With a penetrating sense of the futility of any action apart from her, I gave the necessary orders for the reception of my guests. When Mildred and her mother came I received them with cordiality; but my genial phrases all seemed to be someone else's. My voice sounded like an echo; my heart was not there. Still, the situation was not intolerable, until the hour when afternoon tea was served in the drawing-room. Mildred and mother kept the conversational pot boiling with"
The Book of Dragons
￥8.82
Eight madcap tales of unpredictable dragons — including one made of ice, another that takes refuge in the General Post Office, and a fire-breathing monster that flies out of an enchanted book and eats an entire soccer team!
Japanese Fairy Tales
￥8.82
This collection of Japanese fairy tales is the outcome of a suggestion made to me indirectly through a friend by Mr. Andrew Lang. They have been translated from the modern version written by Sadanami Sanjin. These stories are not literal translations, and though the Japanese story and all quaint Japanese expressions have been faithfully preserved, they have been told more with the view to interest young readers of the West than the technical student of folk-lore.

Fue considerada en el momento de su aparición como uno de los ejemplos más ortodoxos del naturalismo en Espa?a. Tiene una continuidad temática y cronológica con "Los pazos de Ulloa". La novela es una invocación a la cultura, concretamente a la religión, al naturalismo cristiano, frente al imperio de la naturaleza desordenada y sin control.
Scènes de la vie russe
￥8.82
Hélas ! j’étais amoureux de celle qui écrivait à Assanof, et jusque-là rien ne m’avait fait soup?onner qu’elle e?t de l’attachement pour lui. Sa lettre, écrite en fran?ais, était pleine d’expressions de tendresse et de dévouement. Elle commen?ait par ces mots : ? Mon cher ami Constantin ?, et se terminait par un conseil et une promesse : ? Soyez prudent comme vous l’avez été jusqu’ici, et si je ne me marie pas avec vous, je ne me marierai avec aucun autre. ? Frappé comme par un coup de foudre, je restai un instant immobile, puis je m’arrachai à cet état de stupeur et sortis précipitamment. Un quart d’heure après j’étais rentré chez moi.

Toc... Toc... Toc ! Etude
￥8.82
Le jour de sa promotion — cela se passait aux environs du 15 mars —, Teglev se promenait le long des quais, en compagnie de quelques camarades impatients d’étrenner leurs uniformes tout neufs. Le printemps était précoce et la glace fondait déjà sur la Néva ; le courant avait emporté les blocs les plus gros, et il ne flottait plus à la surface du fleuve qu’une couche mince et peu résistante. Les jeunes gens devisaient joyeusement, riaient... quand l’un d’eux s’arrêta : il venait d’apercevoir, à une vingtaine de mètres du bord, un caniche qui s’était réfugié sur une glace plus stable que les autres et hurlait en tremblant de tout son corps transi.
On The Eve...
￥8.82
On the Eve is the third novel by famous Russian writer Ivan Turgenev, best known for his short stories and the novel Fathers and Sons. Turgenev embellishes this love story with observations on middle class life and interposes some art and philosophy. Nikolay Dobrolyubov was critical of On the Eve, offending Turgenev. The story revolves around Elena, a girl with a hypochondriac mother and an idle father, a retired guards lieutenant with a mistress. On the eve of the Crimean War, Elena is pursued by a free-spirited sculptor (Shubin) and a serious-minded student (Berzyenev). But when Berzyenev's revolutionary Bulgarian friend, Insarov, meets Elena, they fall in love. In secretly marrying Insarov Elena disappoints her mother and enrages her father, who had hoped to marry her to a dull, self-satisfied functionary, Kurnatovski. Insarov nearly dies from pneumonia and only partly recovers. On the outbreak of war Insarov tries to return with Elena to Bulgaria, but tragically dies in Venice. Elena takes Insarov's body to the Balkans for burial and then vanishes.

Récits d'un Chasseur
￥8.82
Khor et Kalinitch, paru dans une revue, rendit célèbre Tourgueniev. Ce premier texte donne le thème de l'ensemble des récits de ce recueil: la chasse, dans de superbes paysages de plaines, de bois, d'étangs où l'on s'égare très vite, sous une chaleur torride ou une pluie battante. Nous découvrons la vie des paysans russes vers 1850, leurs croyances na?ves, leurs chansons, leurs disputes (que de femmes battues!) mais surtout leur vie terrible: les ma?tres décident de tout (mariage, emploi), les déplacent à leur gré et appliquent une justice très approximative quand ils osent se plaindre. La faim, la peur et la soumission à une hiérarchie corrompue sont le quotidien de nombreux moujiks. L'auteur (narrateur des récits) dénonce ici l'horreur du servage, ce qui lui valut un exil dans ses terres, tout en révélant aux Russes l'?me de son peuple.
