Wood'stown
Alphonse Daudet
¥8.82
"L'emplacement était superbe pour b?tir une ville. Il n'y avait qu'à déblayer les bords du fleuve, en abattant une partie de la forêt, de l'immense forêt vierge enracinée là depuis la naissance du monde. Alors abritée tout autour par des collines boisées, la ville descendrait jusqu'aux quais d'un port magnifique, établi dans l'embouchure de la Rivière-Rouge, à quatre milles seulement de la mer."

Les Aventures prodigieuses de Tartarin de Tarascon
Alphonse Daudet

Qui ne connait pas l'illustrissime Tartarin, immortalisé au cinéma par Raimu? Mais... au cas où, voici le résumé du début de cette aventure épique, et, pour tout dire, tarasconnaise... Tartarin possède un jardin exotique où il entretient un baobab dans un pot de réséda, de nombreuses armes et quantité de livres d'aventures. ? Tarascon, les chasseurs sans gibier tirent sur leur casquette, après l'avoir lancée en l'air. Chacun dans le voisinage reconna?t que Tartarin est un vrai caractère, prêt à repousser toutes les attaques (qui ne viennent pas...). Il n'a jamais quitté Tarascon, mais l'arrivée d'une ménagerie et d'un lion en cage l'incite à partir pour l'Atlas...
La giara
La giara
Luigi Pirandello
¥8.82
Vengono qui presentate alcune novelle estratte dalla raccolta "Novelle per un anno". I paesaggi delle novelle sono vari; per quelle dette siciliane si ha spesso il tipico paesaggio rurale, anche se in alcune troviamo il tema sociale del contrasto tra le generazioni dovuto all'unità d'Italia. Altro ambiente delle novelle pirandelliane è la Roma umbertina o giolittiana. I protagonisti sono sempre alla presa con il male di vivere, con il caso e con la morte e potrebbero essere i vicini della porta accanto: sarte, balie, professori, piccoli proprietari di negozi che hanno una vita sconvolta dalla sorte e da drammi familiari. I personaggi ci vengono presentati così come appaiono, è difficile trovare un'approfondita analisi psicologica. Le fisionomie sono spesso eccentriche, per il sentimento del contrario, hanno un carattere opposto a come si presentano, parlano e ragionano nel presentarsi per come essi sentono di essere, ma alla fine saranno sempre preda del caso, che li farà apparire diversi e cambiati.

The Return of Sherlock Holmes
Arthur Conan Doyle
¥8.82
The Return of Sherlock Holmes is a collection of 13 Sherlock Holmes stories, originally published in 1903-1904, by Arthur Conan Doyle. The book was first published on March 7, 1905 by Georges Newnes, Ltd and in a Colonial edition by Longmans. 30,000 copies were made of the initial print run. The US edition by McClure, Phillips & Co. added another 28,000 to the run. This was the first Holmes collection since 1893, when Holmes had "died" in "The Adventure of the Final Problem". Having published The Hound of the Baskervilles in 1901–1902 (although setting it before Holmes' death) Doyle came under intense pressure to revive his famous character.
