The Diary of a Madman and Other Stories
Some call him a Russian Mark Twain. And with his special blend of comedy, social commentary, and fantasy, Nikolai Gogol paved the way for his countrymen Tolstoy and Dostoyevsky. This sampling of Gogol s works includes the increasingly fantastic entries of The Diary of a Madman, followed by the wonderfully surrealistic The Nose, in which the title character embarks on some unlikely activities when separated from its owner s face. In The Carriage, a pompous landowner gets his comeuppance when he attempts to impress a general. Rounding out the collection are the woefully comic tale of a clerk s acquisition of The Overcoat and the celebrated novella Taras Bulba about the Ukrainian mythic hero said to have led a bloody Cossack revolt against the Poles. Translated by Priscilla Meyer and Andrew R. McAndrewWith a New Introductionand an Afterword by Priscilla Meyer"

Henry VIII and his Six Wives + CD
There were six of them - three Katherines, two Annes, and a Jane. One of them was the King's wife for twenty-four years, another for only a year and a half. One died, two were divorced, and two were beheaded. It was a dangerous, uncertain life. After the King's death in 1547, his sixth wife finds a box of old letters - one from each of the first five wives. They are sad, angry, frightened letters. They tell the story of what it was like to be the wife of Henry VIII of England.

Poirot és én
Agatha Christie a második helyet foglalja el a világon a legtöbb példányban elkelt szerzők listáján. Poirot-t, Agatha Christie teremtményét valószínűleg mindenki ismeri. Az őt megformáló David Suchet neve kevésbé ismert, a külseje viszont annál inkább. Ő Poirot. Poirot ő.
Suchet hetven tévéfilmben alakította Poirot-t, aki időközben a személyiségének részévé vált. A könyv mindkettejük életrajza. Suchet többször is hangúlyozza, hogy felnőtt élete felét Poirot-val töltötte. Hetekig próbálgatta-alakítgatta a karaktert, kívül és belül. Napokig egy, a farpofái közé szorított érmével járkált, hogy felvegye Poirot tipegő járását, és óraszám hallgatta a francia rádió angol nyelvű adásait, hogy kidolgozza Poirot akcentusát.
Suchet Poirot-ja önálló életre kel: ez a magabiztos és rendmániás kis belga detektív - aki egyébként a logika bogaras megszállottja - valójában egy magányos és végtelenül együttérző lélek, akire mindig számíthat az, aki bajban van... és Poirot rajongói érzik ezt. Sokuk szerint a világ biztonságosabb és boldogabb hely, ha Poirot jelen van benne.
A könyvben számtalan kedves történet, pletyka és anekdota olvasható Agatha Christie-ről, Suchet állandó partnereiről, a forgatásokról, a produkció hányattatásairól és a filmek kritikai fogadtatásáról és még sok minden másról. Ha valaki szereti Poirot-t, könyvben és filmen, akkor ezt a könyvet feltétlenül el kell olvasnia. De azért legyünk óvatosak, mert Poirot szerint: "Esz a David Suchet aszt 'iszi, 'ogy ismeh engem, de tehmészetesen nem ismeh. Ő okos, de én bhiliáns vagyok!"
