The Red Badge of Courage
A powerful graphic novel adaptation of the classic and genre-defining war novel The Red Badge of Courage, which has been continuously in print since 1894, available simultaneously in hardcover and paperback Steve Cuzor's stark yet detailed artwork perfectly capture the realistic prose of the original novel, presenting a lushly illustrated, unflinching depiction of war through the eyes of a young, inexperienced soldier. By illustrating the story, Cuzor pulls readers into the midst of the action, making Henry Fleming’s experience feel all the more visceral. Literary aficionados and students alike will find another layer of this classic story to appreciate in this new adaptation of Crane’s magnum opus. Written by Stephen Crane when he was just 24, The Red Badge of Courage is a Civil War story that captured the imaginations of readers worldwide and made its author an overnight literary icon. A groundbreaking and realistic examination of the psychological effects of war, the novel draws from firsthand accounts and research. Crane’s depiction of his main character, Henry Fleming, and his internal monologue, ring so true that many readers mistook Crane for a veteran himself. The realistic prose and visceral descriptions of battle that Crane used marked the first shift away from uncritical patriotism in war literature. It would take until at least the 1920s and the wake of the horror of the First World War for the rest of the genre to catch up. In the years following its publication, The Red Badge of Courage was hailed by Crane scholar Henry Wertheim as “unquestionably the most realistic novel about the American Civil War,” and Ernest Hemingway called the novel an “American classic.”

Árvák - Éldekorált kiadás
A 2020-ban megjelent nagy sikerű Árvák című regény átdolgozott, új kiadása!
Hogyan nőnek fel gyermekek, akiknek nincsenek szülei? Milyen élet vár azokra, akikről lemondtak? Válhat boldog felnőtt azokból, akiket megkínoztak, bántalmaztak?
Létezhet mély, elválaszthatatlan lelki kapcsolódás ott, ahol a vér köteléke semmit sem jelent? Születhetnek őszinte barátságok? Kitarthat testvériség szülői összetartás nélkül? Juthat szeretet azoknak, akiknek sosem mutatták meg, milyen az? Egyszerűen: létezhetnek még csodák?
Marion Leroux mára Párizs legbefolyásosabb madámja. Gyermekkorát szülei halála után árvaházban töltötte, majd onnan kiszabadulva annak szentelte életét, hogy két húgát magához vehesse. Ennek érdekében pedig semmitől nem riadt vissza.
Colette nővére befolyásának köszönhetően a gyermekéveiknek helyt adó árvaház intézményvezető apácájává válik. Célja, hogy az egyház sérthetetlenségével visszaélőktől óvja és védje az ott élő kislányokat, még akkor is, ha mindeközben ő maga is megbocsáthatatlan bűnöket követ el.
Léa a legfiatalabb és zabolázhatatlan Leroux lány, Franciaország ünnepelt balerinája. Nővérének köszönhetően kevés időt töltött az árvaház falai között, ma mégis boldogtalan. Kicsapongó, lázadó természete felnőtt korukra, úgy tűnik, éket ver a három nővér közé.
