Uneducated: 37 People Who Redefined the Definition of ‘Educated’
¥40.79
Did you ever find yourself at a dead—end, not knowing where to go, or which way to turn? I’m sure Steve Jobs did, or Bill Gates, or Leonardo da Vinci, or Ben Franklin, or any of our twelve presidents who didn’t have degrees. But that didn’t stop them. They didn’t give up. They gathered their wits, made a plan, and persevered. And look where it got them!? Not everyone becomes a billionaire, obviously, but it *is* achievable. Many of the people in this book did it. You can too. ?
Thérèse Raquin
¥4.41
Thérèse Raquin is a novel by ?mile Zola, first published in 1867. It was originally published in serial format in the journal L'Artiste. It was published in book format in December of the same year. In 1873, Zola turned Thérèse Raquin into a play. Thérèse Raquin tells the story of a young woman, unhappily married to her first cousin by a well-intentioned and overbearing aunt. Her cousin, Camille, is sickly and selfish, and when the opportunity arises, Thérèse enters into a tragic affair with one of Camille's friends, Laurent. In his preface, Zola explains that his goal in this novel was to "study temperaments and not characters" and he compares the novel to a scientific study. Because of this detached and scientific approach, Thérèse Raquin is considered an example of Naturalism.

More Misused Words: No Mistakes Grammar, Volume III
¥40.79
More Misused Words contains a lot of the same words that Misused Words I and II did, but so much more. In More Misused Words, we address even more redundancies, absolutes, capitals, eponyms, flat adverbs (everybody’s favorite), initialisms and acronyms, Latin abbreviations, mispronunciations, a couple of sticklers like lie/lay/laid/lain, and poisonous/venomous, plurals of compound words (is it mothers-in-law or mother-in-laws? Isn’t one sufficient?), time-consuming phrases, and punctuation. We’ll have fun tackling these words (they’re not that big), and we’ll address more than just words—we’ll hit on eponyms, odd punctuation, and even a few Latin expressions, such as e.g., ergo, etc., and i.e. (Did I just say ‘ergo’? If I do that again, smack me.) I know you think you are familiar with these, but despite their ubiquitousness (Smack me for that also.), there might be a few odd rules that pertain to using Latin expressions that you’re not familiar with. It’s worthwhile to learn them (especially if you intend to write).?
Captain Burle
¥4.41
It was nine o'clock. The little town of Vauchamp, dark and silent, had just retired to bed amid a chilly November rain. In the Rue des Recollets, one of the narrowest and most deserted streets of the district of Saint-Jean, a single window was still alight on the third floor of an old house, from whose damaged gutters torrents of water were falling into the street. Mme Burle was sitting up before a meager fire of vine stocks, while her little grandson Charles pored over his lessons by the pale light of a lamp.

In this fourth volume, Proust’s novel takes up for the first time the theme of homosexual love and examines how destructive sexual jealousy can be for those who suffer it. Sodom and Gomorrah is also an unforgiving analysis of both the decadent high society of Paris and the rise of a philistine bourgeoisie that will inevitably supplant it.

The Turncoat Prince
¥32.62
Darna is just a guildswoman, or so she’d like to think, but her alleged father was the prince of a backwater province. Now he’s been assassinated, and her uncle has put a price on Darna’s head to secure his claim on the throne. Darna takes her lover’s place in a job that will take her away from the city and, she hopes, away from assassins’ daggers. Her new employer, the prince, is irate to find that the able-bodied man he hired has been replaced by a limping woman. According to the contract, they’re stuck together for the year. The prince is arrogant, but also intelligent and well-read. As winter closes in, their late night conversations turn from sea walls to more intimate territory. Meanwhile, the province’s lost dragon reappears, and even the prince can see it. This book is the second in the Dragonsfall trilogy. It is recommended that you read The Defenders' Apprentice first. The story also refers back to some events which took place in the two prequel novels, Scrapplings and Priestess.

Om politic liberal mai pu?in cunoscut, Gheorghe D. Pallade a l?sat un jurnal care, de?i cuprinde o perioad? destul de scurt? ?n timp, 1 martie 1897 - 8 ianuarie 1898, ne va introduce ?n atmosfera extrem de fr?m?ntat? din interiorul Partidului Na?ional Liberal.S-a n?scut ?n anul 1858 la B?rlad, dintr-o familie ?nst?rit?. ?i-a f?cut studiile secundare ?i universitare ?n ?ar?, lu?ndu-?i licen?a ?n drept la Facultatea de drept a Universit??ii din Bucure?ti ?n anul 1880. Intr? ?n magistratur? p?n? ?n 1884 c?nd, particip?nd la alegeri este ales deputat pe listele Partidului Na?ional Liberal. Din acest moment via?a lui devine public? ?i intr? ?n v?ltoarea luptelor politice. ?n acela?i an, al?turi de C.A. Rosetti a sus?inut colegiul unic ?i libertatea absolut? a presei. De fapt a ?i fost colaborator al ziarului Rom?nul.Paginile de jurnal, de?i nu acoper? nici un an de zile, prezint? una din cele mai zbuciumate perioade al Partidului Na?ional Liberal. Subiective sau nu, paginile r?mase de la Gh.D. Pallade vin s? completeze istoria politic? a Rom?niei de la sf?r?itul secolului al XIX-lea.L?s?m pe seama cititorului s? analizeze jurnalul lui Gh.D. Pallade. Nou? nu ne r?m?ne dec?t s? ar?t?m c? am considerat ca notele s? fie c?t se poate de complete, persoanele ?i locurile fiind foarte numeroase, f?r? de care, chiar un cititor avizat nu s-ar descurca. Iat? de ce am recurs la solu?ia de a desp?r?i notele de indicele de nume. Trebuie, de asemenea, s? atragem aten?ia c? notele sunt a?ezate alfabetic, deoarece tot volumul ar fi fost prea ?nc?rcat de numere ?i cifre. Sper?m c? modesta noastr? contribu?ie prin editarea acestui jurnal s? ?mplineasc? un scurt moment din fr?m?ntata noastr? istorie politic? a Rom?niei de la sf?r?itul secolului al XIX-lea.
