Sinossi

Wuthering Heights is an 1847 novel by Emily Brontë, initially published under her pen name Ellis Bell. It concerns two families of the landed gentry living on the West Yorkshire moors, the Earnshaws and the Lintons, and their turbulent relationships with Earnshaw's foster son, Heathcliff. The novel was influenced by Romanticism and Gothic fiction.

Wuthering Heights is now considered a classic of English literature, but contemporaneous reviews were polarised. It was controversial for its depictions of mental and physical cruelty, and for its challenges to Victorian morality and religious and societal values

Wuthering Heights was accepted by publisher Thomas Newby along with Anne Brontë's Agnes Grey before the success of their sister Charlotte's novel Jane Eyre, but they were published later. Charlotte edited a second edition of Wuthering Heights after Emily's death which was published in 1850. It has inspired an array of adaptations across several media, including English singer-songwriter Kate Bush's song of the same name.

    Originally written in 1944 by the Office of Strategic Services (O.S.S.), the wartime predecessor to the CIA, the Simple Sabotage Field Manual is a fascinating and often startling guide to subtle disruption during World War II. Designed to be used by ordinary citizens behind enemy lines, this manual offered clever, low-risk ways to undermine operations—from misfiling paperwork to tampering with machinery and stalling meetings. 
    Both a historical curiosity and a chillingly relevant study in passive resistance, the manual outlines how small acts of obstruction—carried out consistently and quietly—could grind an enemy’s war machine to a halt. With its dryly practical tone and surprising creativity, Simple Sabotage Field Manual reveals the hidden tactics of psychological warfare, bureaucratic interference, and grassroots defiance. 
    Narrated with gripping precision by Russ Jankovitz, this audiobook brings the shadowy ingenuity of World War II espionage to life, offering listeners a window into how everyday people were weaponized to fight tyranny from within.

    Tech literacy is more than just knowing how to use a smartphone or browse the internet—it’s about understanding the digital world and navigating it confidently and responsibly. In a time when technology influences nearly every part of our lives, being tech literate is as fundamental as reading and writing. Whether you're managing personal tasks, handling work responsibilities, or simply trying to stay connected, having a strong foundation in tech literacy is essential. 
    At its core, tech literacy involves the ability to effectively use digital tools, think critically about technology, and understand how digital systems operate. It also includes knowing how to stay safe online, protect your privacy, and make informed decisions about the tech you use. Unlike digital fluency, which refers to mastering complex tools or coding, tech literacy focuses on building practical, everyday skills that help you adapt to new technology as it evolves. 
    The importance of tech literacy has grown rapidly over the last few decades. From the rise of the internet to the development of smartphones and smart devices, the digital landscape has changed how we work, learn, communicate, and socialize. Schools now integrate digital tools into the classroom, many jobs require at least basic tech proficiency, and everyday activities—like banking, shopping, or scheduling appointments—often happen online. Without tech literacy, individuals may struggle to access important resources, opportunities, and information.

    Step into the compelling narrative that delves into the tapestry of the Kennedy dynasty, unraveling their ascent to unprecedented national and global eminence. "Power & Ambition: The Kennedy Family and the Tragedy of an American Dynasty" is a meticulously researched book that vividly portrays ambition, triumph, and tragedy. This book meticulously traces the Kennedy family's journey from humble Irish roots to the corridors of power. Anchored by Joseph P. Kennedy's unyielding ambition to shield his kin from the turbulent tides of discrimination, this work explores how his aspirations birthed a legacy that reshaped American history. Among their accomplishments, however, were a series of sad tragedies, ranging from whispered rumors of bootlegging to the heartbreaking threat of mental infirmity, from terrifying plane disasters to haunting echoes of assassinations. This book unravels the catastrophe threads that seemed to follow the Kennedys, weaving together historical, sociological, and psychological insights to untangle the enigmatic Kennedy "curse."
