Sinopsis

A Christmas tree becomes a gateway to treasured memories and festive wonders.
In A Christmas Tree, Charles Dickens invites readers to gather around a beautifully decorated tree as he recalls the joys, mysteries, and enchantments of Christmas past. Through vivid imagery and gentle nostalgia, Dickens reflects on toys, games, ghost stories, and the simple pleasures that make the season magical.

First published in 1850, this short but evocative piece captures the Victorian spirit of Christmas—a celebration of warmth, family, and imagination. Blending humor, sentiment, and a touch of the supernatural, it remains a charming companion to Dickens's more famous holiday works, offering a tender glimpse into his own love for the season.

"A charming, sentimental gem that captures Dickens's gift for blending memory with magic."
– The Guardian

"An intimate and nostalgic piece, perfect for fireside reading during the holidays."
– The New York Times

    From Edgar Allan Poe—the master of the short story and lyric poem—comes this rare treasury of classics. The outstanding works "A Descent into the Maelstrom," "Annabelle Lee," "Eldorado," "The Bells," and "The Unparalleled Adventure of One Hans Pfaall," illustrate Poe's meticulous sense of construction, with signature themes of romance and melancholy that characterized his short and troubled life. Short stories such as "MS. Found in a Bottle," "Some Words with a Mummy," "A Tale of the Ragged Mountains," and "The Thousand and Second Tale of Scheherazade" typify Poe's original literary style—one that is still copied in today's detective stories and gothic tales. This worthy collection, dramatized by Oscar-winning actor Paul Scofield, will enthrall all enthusiasts of Poe's work.

    "What I like about sailing is that it is sustainable. You set the sails and the wind propels and you can go to the end of the world with little extra thought. You don't need too many clothes and certainly you are not a slave to fashion or the need to dress in the latest style. Some locally sourced food and off you go." 
    These entertaining stories of sailing life began when Martin and his wife Kerryn departed from Adelaide on thier run-down yacht. They were headed for Fremantle but they forgot to turn right at Kangeroo Island and arrived in Hobart. It was an easy navigational error to make. 
    Once in Hobart, in order to avoid an almost global pandemic they remained in Tasmania. After all, Tasmania is at the end of the world and even a virus wouldn't want to go there. It was a strategy as successful as their navigation, but here you will hear no sotries of lockdowns or vaccinations. Instead, seven stories about wildlife, onboard catering, waste and power managment. Stories inspired by the reality of sustainable sailing in the same way the desire to sail home to Fremantle resulted in a trip to Tasmania.
