David Copperfield - Illustrated and Annotated Youth Edition

Charles Dickens

Beschreibung

Orphaned by his father, David Copperfield's life is far from easy. After his mother remarries the despicable Mr. Murdstone, who mistreats him, David's life plunges further into despair when his mother dies, and he is forced to work in a London warehouse at the tender age of ten. Fed up with his grim reality, David decides to escape and seek out his Aunt Betsy, a decision that sets his life on a new and hopeful path.

Narrated from the perspective of an adult, David Copperfield's life is a tapestry woven with satire and ironic humor, grief and anguish, yet also filled with immense joy and the bustling noise of life.

Regarded by its author, Charles Dickens (1812-1870), as one of his finest works and perhaps the one most reflective of his own life, the trials and triumphs of young Copperfield mirror Dickens' own experiences. Originally published in installments in 1849 and 1850, the novel quickly became a massive hit, eagerly anticipated by readers and lauded by critics.

This edition presents a carefully curated illustrated version, tailored for young readers and for adults who wish to revisit the vicissitudes of David Copperfield navigating through the Victorian society—a society filled with both brilliance and shadows, vividly captured by Dickens in a way that is both engaging and accessible.

The Prince of Nowhere

Rochelle Hassan

This sweeping middle grade fantasy debut by Rochelle Hassan follows Roda and Ignis, who embark on an adventure filled with magic and mystery—perfect for fans of Howl’s Moving Castle by Diana Wynne Jones.  
Roda isn’t afraid of the monsters that roam the wilds of the Aerlands. She’s safe in her small town, which is surrounded by a wall of freezing, enchanted mist that keeps the beasts away. So when Roda rescues an injured crow on the instruction of her secret pen pal, Anonymous—whose letters arrive without warning and correctly predict the future—she’s surprised to learn she’s brought one of the so-called monsters home. Because her crow is really a shape-shifting boy named Ignis. 
Ignis doesn’t remember where he was going before he crashed. But Anonymous brought him and Roda together for a reason—and the only way to find out what Anonymous wants is to follow the trail of baffling clues in Roda’s letters. Their perilous journey leads them into the mist and beyond, to a mysterious place called Nowhere. But Ignis has secrets, and the farther they get, the more Roda doubts she can trust him. 
As a nefarious force closes in, they’ll have to put aside their differences and work together. For they might be each other’s only defense against an enemy who threatens their past, present, and future.
