The Diary of a Nobody


Having just moved into a fine, six-roomed residence, “the Laurels”, the Pooters are ready to begin a new life. Charles, the paterfamilias, a lowly clerk in a City of London firm, begins to keep a diary, one that, over the next fifteen months, will provide a record of the small trials and tribulations – as well as the preoccupations, aspirations and social anxieties – of a late-Victorian family. Serialized in Punch between 1888 and 1889, and later expanded and illustrated for publication in volume form in 1892, The Diary of a Nobody, the Grossmith brothers’ highest achievement, is a comic masterpiece and arguably one of the greatest artistic collaborations of all time.

Marie, a párizsi fordítónő Toszkána napfényes dombjai között talál rá arra a békére, amelyről azt hitte, örökre elveszítette. Roberto, a szőlőbirtok gazdája két gyermekével együtt, lassan visszavezeti őt az életbe és a szerelemhez. De a történet itt nem ér véget. Egy különleges nászút során együtt fedezik fel Marokkó varázslatos világát: a színekben vibráló bazárokat, a Magas-Atlasz hegyeit, a sivatag kapuját, az időtlen kasbahokat és az Atlanti-óceán fuvallatát. Minden nap új élmény, minden hely egy új fejezet – és minden pillanat közelebb viszi őket egymáshoz. Ez a könyv nemcsak egy romantikus történet, hanem egy különleges útikönyv is Marokkó csodás vidékeire.

Madame Bovary (Signature Editions)


Gustave Flaubert's classic novel of a bored French housewife who goes to great lengths to escape the staleness of provincial life, freshly repackaged for the Union Square & Co. Signature Editions line. Beautiful and bored, housewife Emma Bovary is trapped in her marriage to a mediocre doctor and stifled by the banality of provincial life. A passionate reader of romance novels, she seeks to escape her existence through spending lavishly on clothing and embarking on multiple affairs. But even something as seemingly exciting as committing adultery only brings her disappointment and devastating consequences for her husband and daughter. Flaubert's erotically charged and psychologically acute portrayal of Emma Bovary caused a moral outcry on its publication in 1857. It was deemed so lifelike that many women claimed they were the model for his heroine; but Flaubert insisted: "Madame Bovary, c'est moi."

Behind the walls of Hever Castle history was being made ... but who was watching? When nobleman Thomas Boleyn, lord of Hever Castle, is called to London in 1509 to present himself to a newly anointed King Henry VIII, he sets in train events that ensure the Boleyn name will never be forgotten. Years later, as Henry VIII relentlessly pursues Thomas' daughter Anne Boleyn to be his queen, Hever Castle becomes her escape, a place where her trusted attendants and her father must advise, protect and support her. Lavish gifts are sent by the King and the Boleyn family is given ever greater prominence at court, their glory shining over everything and everyone. Until ambition turns the family on itself, enemies outside the castle circle closer and danger begins to stalk the corridors of Hever. And as Henry's gaze moves elsewhere when Anne cannot give him the heir he so desperately seeks, the family faces a terrible, bloody fate. But as long as Hever still stands, hope still exists. Combining drama, danger and passion, Tracy Borman brings the Boleyn family's three-decade rise and precipitous fall to vivid life using their world at Hever, family and servants alike, as never written before.
