  This rollicking semi-autobiographical novel weaves a tale of Wodehouse’s early days as a writer, romance gone awry, and the colorful characters he encountered. 
  James Orlebar Cloyster, in order to marry his true love, embarks on a scheme of such clever deception that he very nearly manages to ruin both his romance and his career. 
  Told from multiple viewpoints—that of James, his fiancée, and friends—Not George Washington lampoons London society, literary pretension, the West End stage, playwrights, playgoers, bohemian life, and the newspapers of the day.

  'Nothing exists; all is a dream. God—man—the world—the sun, the moon, the wilderness of stars—a dream, all a dream; they have no existence. Nothing exists save empty space—and you!'
  
  Published posthumously, The Mysterious Stranger is Mark Twain's final, unfinished novella, showcasing the writer at his most chilling.
  
  Set in a quiet Austrian town during the medieval period, Twain's provocative tale follows three children whose lives are thrown into chaos by the arrival of a charming yet enigmatic youth named Satan. Through the use of heavenly powers, Satan executes miracles with ease, magically transporting his peers back in time and forcing them to witness witch trials, hangings and influxes of mass hysteria. He unveils unsettling truths, highlighting the hypocrisies of religion, morality and human nature. By turns whimsical and profoundly existential, Twain crafts a fable that cleverly questions the very fabric of the human experience: free will, the nature of evil and the illusion of reality. The result is a bold, haunting and eerily modern adventure that lingers long after the last word.
  Mark Twain (1835 – 1910), the pen name of Samuel Langhorne Clemens, was an American writer and essayist. Famed for his wit and satire, he quickly became a sought-after writer and speaker, and was labelled the 'greatest humorist the United States has produced' by the New York Times. Today, he is considered as the father of modern American literature.

  Just like Beauty

  Just like Beauty is a brilliantly inventive debut novel that blends adolescent angst and cultural satire and is set in a disconcertingly not-so-distant future complete with high-tech food, mutant animals, socially sanctioned violence, and despoliation of the planet. This surprising combination gives author Lisa Lerner a fresh and funny way to explore family dynamics, gender roles, competitiveness, and the "beauty myth" in a society that keeps reinventing them anew for each generation. 
  A plague of mutant grasshoppers is invading American suburbia. An underground suicide cult is gaining national prominence. Gangs of teenage boys with blow torches run amok. But what really has fourteen-year-old Edie Stein distracted from her town's annual Feminine Woman of Conscience Pageant is Lana Grimaldi, the sexy girl next door. How does a feminine woman of conscience deal with her? 
  Just like Beauty offers a comically trenchant look at where our culture is heading and the absurdity that passes for ordinary.
