  Between Memphis and Rose Valley Hills, there are the good and the gritty—both have a story to tell … 
   
  In Love Letters from Memphis, a clear and distinct line was drawn between the secret society and the underworld. 
   
  In A Memphis Gangsta’s Pain, friendships and family bonds are on the line as Londen Graham and Noah Gabriel both claim their freedom and choose different sides of the law to abide by. As Londen yearns to be a family man with his fiancée Lei, the wild lifestyle of his best friend Noah and his father’s  
  pleas for help have him on the brink of returning to the streets. Will Noah’s friendship, combined with explosive secrets and street wars, pull Londen back to the life he swore to Lei he’d retired from, or will the love he expressed in Memphis be enough to keep him on the straight and narrow?

  Faust is a tragic play in two parts by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, usually known in English as Faust, Part One and Faust, Part Two. Although rarely staged in its entirety, it is the play with the largest audience numbers on German-language stages. Faust is considered by many to be Goethe's magnum opus and the greatest work of German literature.The earliest forms of the work, known as the Urfaust, were developed between 1772 and 1775; however, the details of that development are not entirely clear. Urfaust has twenty-two scenes, one in prose, two largely prose and the remaining 1,441 lines in rhymed verse. The manuscript is lost, but a copy was discovered in 1886.The first appearance of the work in print was Faust, a Fragment, published in 1790. Goethe completed a preliminary version of what is now known as Part One in 1806. Its publication in 1808 was followed by the revised 1828–29 edition, the last to be edited by Goethe himself.Goethe finished writing Faust Part Two in 1831; it was published posthumously the following year. In contrast to Faust Part One, the focus here is no longer on the soul of Faust, which has been sold to the devil, but rather on social phenomena such as psychology, history and politics, in addition to mystical and philosophical topics. The second part formed the principal occupation of Goethe's last years.

  The Tenant of Wildfell Hall - A...

  A widow arrives at a half-empty hall with a small son and no explanation, and the middle of the book is the diary that explains her: a marriage to a charming drunk, recorded without euphemism. After Anne's death her sister Charlotte refused to let it be reprinted, thinking it too coarse. It is one of the first English novels to treat a woman leaving her husband as the right thing to do. Sixty plates of interiors and quiet resolve by Hammershøi and Millais, from 1840 to 1905, give the novel's closed rooms and hard-won independence their visual counterpart.

  It is time for Dillon Mitchell to start living again. 
  Since the death of her wife three years ago, Dillon had buried herself in her work. When an invitation arrives for Tiffany Daniels’ exclusive birthday party, her best friend persuades her to join them for the weekend. 
  It’s not the celebration that draws her but the location. The party is being held at the Whitaker Estate, one of the hottest tickets on the West Coast. The Estate once belonged to an eccentric survivalist, whose family converted it into a trendy destination while preserving some of its original history. 
  Surrounded by a roomful of successful lesbians, Dillon finds herself drawn to Skylar Lange, the mysterious and elusive bartender. Before the two can finish their first dance, a scream shatters the evening. When the party goers emerge from the underground bunker, they discover something terrible has happened at the Estate. 
  The group races to try to discover the cause of this upheaval, and whether it’s isolated to the Estate. Has the world, as we know it, changed forever?
