Summary

"Whether I shall turn out to be the hero of my own life, or whether that station will be held by anybody else, these pages must show."

Follow the life of David Copperfield from his idyllic childhood in Blunderstone to the harsh realities of a London bottling factory and his eventual rise as a successful author. Dickens weaves a sprawling narrative of hardship and triumph, populated by a cast of characters so vivid they have become archetypes of the English language.

A Tapestry of Human Experience: Experience the warmth of the Peggotty family living in their upturned boat-house on the Yarmouth sands, and endure the chilling cruelty of the stepfather, Mr. Murdstone. Witness the eternal optimism of the debt-ridden Mr. Micawber—always waiting for "something to turn up"—and the "umblemished" villainy of the "umble" Uriah Heep.

The Personal Masterpiece: David Copperfield is Dickens at the height of his powers, blending humor, pathos, and social critique. It explores the complexities of marriage, the cruelty of child labor, and the importance of perseverance. More than a story of one man, it is a grand observation of the Victorian era, filled with the "discipline of the heart" that transforms a boy into a man of character.

A journey of a thousand memories. Purchase "David Copperfield" today and discover the heart and soul of Dickensian literature.

    A Bigfoot Bestiary and Other...

    A Bigfoot Bestiary and Other Wonders is a compendium of natural and unnatural astonishment, anatomizing all those big, hairy monsters that haunt the human condition. Follow their footprints through these pages, and Martin Achatz may just make you a believer in the greatest mystery of all: Love with a capital "L". 
    "Martin Achatz knows what it is to be big and hairy and to express the animal inside us. To paraphrase the Zen koan, live as if you were already Bigfoot. If Iowa Poet Laureate Marvin Bell has his Dead Man poems, Michigan's Achatz has rendered poetical the great ape of the Northwoods, and he eloquently and determinedly immerses us in the dream, meanwhile paying homage to Robert Frost, Pablo Neruda, Wallace Stevens, Flannery O'Connor, and all the other wonderful monsters." --Bonnie Jo Campbell, author of The Waters and American Salvage 
    "Martin Achatz reimagines the legendary Bigfoot in his newest book, a funny and moving collection of poems that is playfully serious. Achatz melds cryptozoologic wonder with the heartrending stuff of the everyday world ... a fierce Sasquatch howl that illuminates and reveals the fragile state of our collective humanity." --W. Todd Kaneko, author of This Is How the Bone Sings 
    "I believe Martin Achatz intended these pages to impart joy (and other wonders) to those who read with an open paintbox at the ready, its colors so pure they demand that monster landscapes be captured and dimensioned within the nether worlds of dreams and the genius of second readings. A 5-star book without doubt." -- Sue Harrison, international bestselling author of The Midwife's Touch 
    Author of The Mysteries of the Rosary and a former U.P. Poet Laureate, Martin Achatz lives in Ishpeming, Michigan with his family. In his spare time, he chases comets and Bigfoot.

    'In the Kingdom of Fife, in the days of long ago, there lived an old man and his wife. The old man was a douce, quiet body, but the old woman was lightsome and flighty, and some of the neighbours were wont to look at her askance, and whisper to each other that they sorely feared that she was a Witch.' 
    Elizabeth W. Grierson tells the tale of the famous witches of Fife, and what happens when one's husband gets a little too curious... This short story is one of a compilation from Grierson's 'The Scottish Fairy Book', first published in 1910, and is read by Stephanie MacGaraidh.
