Sinopsis

D. H. Lawrence's "Sons and Lovers" is a poignant exploration of the complexities of familial relationships, particularly between sons and mothers, set against the backdrop of early 20th-century industrial England. The novel intricately weaves themes of love, sexual desire, and class struggle through its richly drawn characters, employing a naturalistic literary style that captures the nuances of human emotion and connection. Lawrence's use of vivid imagery and psychological insight delves deep into the inner lives of the characters, reflecting the impact of their environment on their relationships and personal development. Lawrence, born into a working-class family in Nottingham, experienced firsthand the tensions of social mobility and familial expectations, experiences that deeply influenced his writing. His tumultuous relationship with his own mother, coupled with his struggles as a writer in a rapidly changing society, informed the themes present in "Sons and Lovers," reflecting his belief in the transformative power of love and the complexities of human relationships within the constraints of societal norms. This seminal work is highly recommended for readers interested in the interplay of love and familial obligations, as well as those seeking to understand the psychological underpinnings of personal identity. Lawrence's rich prose and profound insights into the human condition make this novel an essential read that resonates with the complexities of modern life.

    Rum, a sailing ship, and a dare…   …What could go wrong?   Edgar Allan Poe’s only complete novel, The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket is one of the first adventure stories set in and around the Antarctic, which at the time was a place of mystery and the unknown.   Pym takes us on an adventure across the seas to uncharted southern lands that are fraught with danger. With shipwrecks, murder, mutiny, and, yes, cannibalism, this tale has it all. First published in 1838, midway between Defoe’s Robinson Crusoe and Stevenson’s Treasure Island, Poe’s Pym echoes one and presages the other while delving even deeper into the darkness of men’s souls.   This new edition, with a new Foreword by New York Times best-selling author and Bram Stoker Award winner Jonathan Maberry, brings the classic tale back to life. Not for the faint of heart, Poe’s novel, which inspired H.G. Wells, Jules Verne, H.P. Lovecraft, and many others, reflects the wonder and dangers of exploring the unknown.

    The Fairy Book of Astronomy — A Lost Classic Back in Print   Katharine Fay Dewey’s only novel was forgotten by time, going out of print after only one edition was published in 1910… and now her legacy has been given new life.   The traditional mythology of the zodiac constellations is well-known, but what happened after those stories were over? How do the people in the sky now interact with each other, with other beings of the heavens, and with those down on Earth?   Here, four girls illuminate the Star People’s adventures in a series of intricately woven tales of friendship, coming-of-age, and found family in the ever-shifting landscape of the celestial sphere.   This new edition contains original illustrations by Frances B. Comstock and a foreword from author and journalist D.P. Benjamin that reveals long-lost information on Katharine Fay Dewey.   Like sailors using the night sky to navigate a vast ocean, Star People and the story of its author have found their way to a new, modern readership.

    One of the masterpieces of classical literature, the "Histories" describes how a small and quarrelsome band of Greek city states united to repel the might of the Persian empire. But while this epic struggle forms the core of his work, Herodotus' natural curiosity frequently gives rise to colorful digressions - a description of the natural wonders of Egypt; an account of European lake-dwellers; and far-fetched accounts of dog-headed men and gold-digging ants. With its kaleidoscopic blend of fact and legend, the "Histories" offers a compelling Greek view of the world of the fifth century BC.
    BOOK 5: TERPSICHORE: The Persians left behind by King Darius in Europe, who had Megabazus for their general, reduced, before any other Hellespontine state, the people of Perinthus, who had no mind to become subjects of the king.
