Synopsis

David Copperfield is the novel that draws most closely from Charles Dickens's own life. Its eponymous hero, orphaned as a boy, grows up to discover love and happiness, heartbreak and sorrow amid a cast of eccentrics, innocents, and villains. Praising Dickens's power of invention, Somerset Maugham wrote: "There were never such people as the Micawbers, Peggotty and Barkis, Traddles, Betsey Trotwood and Mr. Dick, Uriah Heep and his mother. They are fantastic inventions of Dickens's exultant imagination...you can never quite forget them."

    No one was as close to Jack Unterweger as Astrid Wagner, the last woman in his life; now a successful criminal defense lawyer. She says:
    “It was different than how all the books and documentaries portray it. Many questions, doubts, unsolved issues remain.”
    Astrid Wagner loved Jack Unterweger. She fought for him and got to know the dark side of justice. This is her story.
    
    Jack Unterweger let Astrid Wagner get a deep insight of his soul, leaving her his diaries, letters and literary works. She searched for the truth, spoke to women who loved, adored or hated him. In this book, she sows doubt, asks questions and exposes a system in which the media and justice system have worked together in an unfortunate way. We learn about the circumstances of Jack Unterweger’s death and what happened afterwards: How Astrid Wagner’s life continued until she became one of the most successful criminal defense lawyers in the country. And why one of Jack Unterweger’s books was banned...
    
    The vivid narrative style conjures up images in your mind that literally catapult you back to the dramatic events of that time: Astrid Wagner was very close to this life, characterized by surprising twists and turns, by extreme emotions ranging from the deepest pain of the soul to the highest bliss. The multifaceted, contradictory and profound personality of Jack Unterweger seems to mirror that of Astrid Wagner. How much did Jack Unterweger shape her? This book provides the answers.

    Legends and Tales is a collection of short stories and folklore-inspired narratives by Bret Harte, showcasing his talent for blending regional color, humor, and moral insight. Set primarily in the American West and mining towns of California, the tales feature larger-than-life characters—gamblers, outcasts, pioneers, and dreamers—whose lives are shaped by fate, fortune, and the rugged frontier landscape. Drawing on oral traditions and local legends, Harte weaves stories rich in sentiment, irony, and vivid atmosphere. Themes of loyalty, justice, and human resilience echo throughout, capturing the spirit of a bygone era. This lesser-known but compelling collection further cements Harte’s role as a master storyteller and chronicler of the Old West.
