  Chichikov, a mysterious stranger, arrives in a provincial town and visits a succession of landowners to make each a strange offer. He proposes to buy the names of dead serfs still registered on the census, saving their owners from paying tax on them, and to use these "souls" as collateral to reinvent himself as a gentleman. In this ebullient masterpiece, Nikolai Gogol created a grotesque gallery of human types, from the bear-like Sobakevich to the insubstantial fool Manilov, and, above all, the devilish con man Chichikov. Dead Souls, Russia's first major novel, is one of the most unusual works of nineteenth-century fiction and a devastating satire on social hypocrisy.This version of Dead Souls is the translation by C. J. Hogarth.

  The inspiration for the hit London Weekend Television series of the same name, this is one confessional you’ll want to make a point of visiting Young Neil Boyd has just finished divinity school and has been newly ordained as a priest. His first post? St. Jude’s parish, a corner of London with a raucous congregation full of Irish immigrants. The flock is an odd pairing with the gentle Father Boyd, but he just might be both mad enough and tender enough to get through to them.   Later adapted into a beloved British sitcom, Bless Me, Father is a humorous and sweet-natured look at Catholicism in the 1950s. Joining Boyd is the cantankerous, scheming, and brilliant Father Duddleswell, a man who is willing to do anything to make sure the Lord’s will be done, and Mrs. Pring, the sharp-tongued housekeeper who both coddles and cajoles her priestly family of two. If the church needs money, Duddleswell will place a bet to get it. If a Catholic wants to marry a Protestant . . . well, maybe he won’t go that far.   Father Neil’s adventures with his parishioners are sure to delight readers of all creeds.

  Dear Big Sister friend, If you are waiting for the birth of your younger sister, or you have a younger sister and you want to know how to deal with it, this book is for you... When the mother says: The little sister is a precious gift, she means it is a gift for YOU... not a gift to give to your friend at the earliest birthday party ... My advice is: Bear your little sister from birth until she becomes a cute lady, because then, you will be forced to bear her for the rest of your life, and forever... Your little sister will wear your clothes and shoes, play with your toys, rip your magazines and books, lose your tools, pens, and books... But you will forget it all when you look at your photo together while she embraces your waist smiling in cuteness. Or, when you wake up at night, finding her sleeping right next to you, and will often hug you with one of her limbs... Do not be surprised when you wake up in one morning finding her toes in your mouth.
