Beschreibung

"Jane Austen: The Complete Novels" in The Giants of Literature series presents a comprehensive collection of Austen's keenly observant and intricately woven narratives that capture the complexities of early 19th-century English society. Through her distinctive use of free indirect discourse and biting social commentary, Austen encapsulates the lives and loves of her characters, exploring themes of marriage, class, and personal agency. Each novel is presented in meticulously edited form, allowing readers to appreciate the brilliance of her prose and the subtlety of her character development, while situating her work within the broader literary context of the Regency period and the early novel tradition. Jane Austen (1775-1817) stands as a pivotal figure in English literature, coming of age during a time of immense social change. Her experiences within a financially constrained gentry family, alongside her keen observations of human behavior, profoundly influenced her writing. Austen's preoccupation with the lives of women and their societal expectations mirrors her own struggles and illustrates her progressive views on female independence and personal fulfillment. This collection is an essential read for enthusiasts of classic literature and those seeking a deeper understanding of societal norms through the lens of Austen's masterfully crafted narratives. Engaging yet accessible, it invites both new readers and seasoned scholars to revisit the rich tapestry of her works, offering fresh insights from every page.

    INTRIGUE. TENSION. LOVE AFFAIRS:
    In The Historical Romance series, a set of stand-alone novels, Vivian Stuart builds her compelling narratives around the dramatic lives of sea captains, nurses, surgeons, and members of the aristocracy.
    Stuart takes us back to the societies of the 20th century, drawing on her own experience of places across Australia, India, East Asia, and the Middle East. 
     
    Elizabeth Ogilvie sailed on the maiden voyage of the S.S Viking with rather mixed feelings. It was not that her job, as assistant purser, was likely to set her any problems; nor was she worried at having to keep secret the fact that she was virtually related to the Chairman of the shipping line, who was also on board — travelling incognito, for reasons of his own. What had been so upsetting for Elizabeth was to discover, at the last moment, that the Captain of the ship was to be Hugh Anson, with whom she had once been in love. But although Elizabeth did not know it, there were others on board with even bigger reasons for treating the Captain with hostility. Altogether it looked like being anything but a peaceful voyage!
