(H/B) COLLECTED STORIES
Εκδότης: EVERYMAN΄S LIBRARY
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1669-0175

Those who know Roald Dahl as a master of macabre comedy will not be disappointed by this volume of his collected shorter fiction which includes all the famous stories, but they may be surprised by less familiar items. These include fantastic vignettes from his years in the wartime RAF, and tales of rural England which reveal the writer to be a close if alarming observer of everyday life. Taken together, they present a portrait of the complex and subtle artist sometimes obscured by Dahl's popular image as one of the greatest children's writ...

(H/B) THE OUTSIDER
Εκδότης: EVERYMAN΄S LIBRARY
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1669-0262

Albert Camus' laconic masterpiece about a Frenchman who murders an Arab in colonial Algeria is famous for diagnosing a state of alienation and spiritual exhaustion which summed up the mood of the mid-twentieth century. Today, more than fifty years after its first appearance, we can see that the success of this Existentialist classic was no passing fashion. One of the most influential books of the century, The Outsider continues to speak to us of ultimate things with the force of a parable and the excitement of a thriller. (From the publish...

(H/B) THE HOUSE OF MIRTH
Εκδότης: EVERYMAN΄S LIBRARY
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1669-0206

Alone in the great social whirl of New York high society, with little but her wit and beauty to support her, Lily Bart pays the ultimate price for defying convention and the hostesses of the Social Register. Edith Wharton's beautifully told tale of Lily's decline and fall matches the novels of Henry James in power and skill, while shedding a light on its subject denied to her male contemporary.

(H/B) THE BIG SLEEP - FAREWELL, MY LOVELY - THE HIGH WINDOW
Εκδότης: EVERYMAN΄S LIBRARY
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1669-0011

Raymond Chandler's first three novels, published here in one volume, established his reputation as an unsurpassed master of hard-boiled detective fiction. The Big Sleep, Chandler's first novel, introduces Philip Marlowe, a private detective inhabiting the seamy side of Los Angeles in the 1930s, as he takes on a case involving a paralyzed California millionaire, two psychotic daughters, blackmail, and murder. In Farewell, My Lovely, Marlowe deals with the gambling circuit, a murder he stumbles upon, and three very beautiful but potentially...

Εκδότης: EVERYMAN΄S LIBRARY
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1669-0271

These humorous and poignant tales of lovers, loneliness, and never-quite-belonging, delivered in her characteristically knowing, wry voice, confirm Lorrie Moore as a master of the short story form. Self-Help, Like Life, Birds of America and Bark, her four acclaimed collections, are all here, and for good measure so too are a handful of stories excerpted from the novels Anagrams, Who Will Run the Frog Hospital? and The Gate at the Stairs. But at the author's request, the order of play is gloriously random: 'I didn't want this Everyman's vol...

(H/B) THE MOONSTONE
Εκδότης: EVERYMAN΄S LIBRARY
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1669-0203

The Moonstone is a stunning yellow diamond the size of a bird's egg that glows like the harvest moon and harbors a flaw in its brilliant depths. Inherited by the beautiful young Englishwoman Rachel Verinder, it is also a sacred talisman to the Hindu priests who hope to bring it back to their holy city in India, from which it was looted long ago. The diamond's disappearance sets in motion an intricately plotted mystery. Wilkie Collins gives the reader all the necessary pieces to the puzzle, but they are so cleverly disguised that his sur...

(H/B) THE RIPLEY OMNIBUS
THE TALENTED MR. RIPLEY, RIPLEY UNDERGROUND, RIPLEY'S GAME
Εκδότης: EVERYMAN΄S LIBRARY
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1669-0058

Three classic crime novels by a master of the macabre appear here together in hardcover for the first time. Suave, agreeable, and completely amoral, Patricia Highsmith's hero, the inimitable Tom Ripley, stops at nothing - not even murder - to accomplish his goals. In achieving for himself the opulent life that he was denied as a child, Ripley shows himself to be a master of illusion and manipulation and a disturbingly sympathetic combination of genius and psychopath. As Highsmith navigates the mesmerizing tangle of Ripley's deadly and sini...

(H/B) FRANKENSTEIN
Εκδότης: EVERYMAN΄S LIBRARY
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1669-0109

No-one in the grip of Mary Shelley's FRANKENSTEIN, with its mythic-minded hero and its highly sympathetic monster who reads Goethe and longs to be at peace with himself, can fail to notice how much more excellent the original is than all the adaptations, imitations and outright plagiarisms which have followed in its ample wake. In her first novel, written at the instigation of Lord Byron and published in 1818, Mary Shelley produced English Romanticism's finest prose fiction. (From the publisher)...

(H/B) THE COLLECTED STORIES
Εκδότης: EVERYMAN΄S LIBRARY
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1669-0056

(...) The purpose of this edition then, is to give the most complete and comprehensibly organized collection of Hemingway's short fiction to date, and to correct some of the anomalies that have crept into other editions. Hemingway published four individual collections of stories during his lifetime. They are the tiny experimental prose volume, in our time (1924), the much expanded In Our Time (1925, with an extra story added in 1930), Men Without Women (1927) and Winner Take Nothing (1933). The arrangement of each of these volumes was, it ...

FEAR AND TREMBLING AND THE BOOK ON ADLER
Εκδότης: EVERYMAN΄S LIBRARY
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1669-0071

Soren Kierkegaard not only transformed Protestant theology but also anticipated twentieth-century existentialism and provided it with many of its motifs. Fear and Trembling and The Book on Adler - addressed to a general audience - have the imaginative excitement and intense personal appeal of the greatest literature. Only Plato and Nietzsche have matched Kierkegaard's ability to give ideas so compellingly vivid and dramatic a shape. (From the publisher) "Fear and Trembling is among the best-known and influential works in nineteenth- and t...

(H/B) THE BROTHER'S KARAMAZOV
Εκδότης: EVERYMAN΄S LIBRARY
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1669-0244

This is a magnificent new translation of Dostoevsky's masterpiece, which when first published in 1991 was described by the Times as 'a miracle' and by The Independent as a near 'ideal translation'. The Brothers Karamazov - Dostoevsky's most widely read novel - is at once a murder mystery, a mordant comedy of family intrigue, a pioneering work of psychological realism and an unblinking look into the abyss of human suffering.

(H/B) DAVID COPPERFIELD
Εκδότης: EVERYMAN΄S LIBRARY
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1669-0029

Charles Dickens's most celebrated novel and the author's own favorite, David Copperfield is the classic account of a boy growing up in a world that is by turns magical, fearful, and grimly realistic. In a book that is part fairy tale and part thinly veiled autobiography, Dickens transmutes his life experience into a brilliant series of comic and sentimental adventures in the spirit of the great eighteenth-century novelists he so much admired. Few readers can fail to be touched by David's fate, and fewer still to be delighted by his story. ...

Εκδότης: EVERYMAN΄S LIBRARY

In The Temple of the Golden Pavilion, celebrated Japanese novelist Yukio Mishima creates a haunting portrait of a young man’s obsession with idealized beauty and his destructive quest to possess it fully. Mizoguchi, an ostracized stutterer, develops a childhood fascination with Kyoto’s famous Golden Temple. While an acolyte at the temple, he fixates on the structure’s aesthetic perfection and it becomes his one and only object of desire. But as Mizoguchi begins to perceive flaws in the temple, he determines that the only true path to beaut...

(H/B) MOBY DICK
Εκδότης: EVERYMAN΄S LIBRARY
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1669-0156

(...) In the fervor of his desire to engage just such issues as were finally to elevate the narrative of Moby-Dick into cosmic drama, however, Melville was unfair to the preceding novels when he dismissed them us jobs since, in fact, they are novels of power that spoke tellingly to readers in their day and speak even more powerfully today to readers with a modern perception of psychological reality. And especially unfair because in them he matured the craftsmanship that opened the way to the literary form he failed to find in Mardi when he...

(H/B) SELECTED STORIES
Εκδότης: EVERYMAN΄S LIBRARY
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1669-0270

During his most productive decade, the 1880s, Maupassant wrote more than 300 stories, including 'Boule de Suif', 'The Necklace', 'The House of Madame Tellier', 'The Hand', 'The Horla' and 'Mademoiselle Fifi'. Marked by the psychological realism that he famously pioneered, the tales in this selection lead us on a tour of the human experience-lust and love, revenge and ridicule, terror and madness. Many take place in the author's native Normandy, but the settings range farther abroad as well, from Brittany and Paris to Corsica and the Medite...
