Synopsis

The Complete Works of Charlotte Brontë presents an exquisite compendium of her literary genius, encapsulating the depth of her themes, vivid characterizations, and innovative narrative techniques. Brontë seamlessly intertwines elements of gothic fiction and romanticism, allowing readers to explore complex human emotions, social criticism, and the struggle for female autonomy. This collection includes her acclaimed novels such as "Jane Eyre" and "Shirley," revealing her keen observations of Victorian society while showcasing her unique voice that challenges gender roles and class structures of her time. Charlotte Brontë, born in 1816 in Yorkshire, England, faced a tumultuous life marked by personal loss and societal constraints, which deeply informed her writing. As one of the pen names used by the Brontë sisters, her works encapsulate not only her individual struggles but also an intricate tapestry of shared experiences with her siblings, creating a literary legacy that reflects their collective literary aspirations amid the backdrop of 19th-century England. For readers seeking to delve into the intricacies of human experience and challenge societal norms, The Complete Works of Charlotte Brontë is an indispensable addition to any literary collection. It invites both admiration and critical contemplation, making it a cornerstone of feminist literature and an exploration of the complexities inherent in the human condition.

    "White Fang" is a novel by Jack London, first published in 1906. It's the story of a wild wolfdog's journey to domestication in the Yukon Territory during the 1890s Klondike Gold Rush. The narrative is structured as a reverse tale to London's other famous work, "The Call of the Wild." While "The Call of the Wild" depicts a domestic dog embracing his wild nature, "White Fang" chronicles the opposite trajectory, where the titular character evolves from ferality to domesticity. Throughout the novel, London examines themes of nature vs. nurture, the inherent violence of the wild, and the potential for redemption through love and kindness.

    Perfect for fans of Georgette Heyer and Bridgerton, a wonderful Regency romance from bestselling author Fenella J. Miller 
    Mrs Mary Williams, a colonel's widow, arrives at Silchester Court with Miss Elizabeth Freemantle, who has been brought up as her sister. But Beth is actually the Duke of Silchester's cousin and he is her guardian. 
    When the duke is called away to his estates in the North, Lord Aubrey, the duke's youngest brother, finds himself designated to oversee the London debut of both his sister, Lady Giselle, and his lively cousin, Beth. 
    Mary is only four years older than Aubrey, but she is more worldly and well-travelled and worries that he might lead Beth astray. She and Aubrey become closer as they chaperone the young ladies, but Mary is not thinking of marrying a second time. She values her independence too much, and certainly not to a young gentleman like Lord Aubrey. 
    Only when her reputation is lost, and marriage to Aubrey is impossible, does she understand that her feelings have changed. 
    Will the duke allow her to be part of his prestigious family or is it too late for them to find happiness together? 
    Please note: This is a re-issue of An Unconventional Bride by Fenella J. Miller

    "The Book" is an unfinished short story by American horror fiction writer H. P. Lovecraft, believed to have been written in late 1933. It was first published in the journal Leaves in 1938, after Lovecraft's death.
    In the story fragment, the narrator is given an ancient book by a strange bookseller, and when he takes it home and examines it, weird and sinister events ensue.
    In October 1933, Lovecraft wrote in a letter: I am at a sort of standstill in writing disgusted at much of my older work, and uncertain as to avenues of improvement. In recent weeks I have done a tremendous amount of experimenting with different styles and perspectives, but have destroyed most of the results.
