Summary

🖋️ Before she became a literary legend, she was a daring teen with a quill and an attitude.

Juvenilia – Volume II continues to unveil the youthful genius of Jane Austen, capturing her playful spirit and astonishing insight before she became the beloved author of Pride and Prejudice. These early stories—written during her teenage years—are witty, satirical, and gleefully subversive, showcasing the bold mind of a girl who was already reshaping literary norms.

📚 Wild romances. Dramatic declarations. Outrageous characters.
This collection includes Love and Freindship, Lesley Castle, and other sharp, clever tales that parody sentimental fiction, mock social conventions, and entertain with absurd yet brilliant humor. Austen's juvenilia is a delightful rebellion against convention—proof that even as a teenager, her voice was fearless and unique.

👒 Raw, unfiltered, and gloriously funny.
Here, you'll find Austen in her most unrestrained form—creating dramatic heroines, chaotic plots, and ironic reflections on love, society, and storytelling itself.

    There are not many English novels which deserve to be called great: Parade's End is one of them. — W. H. Auden  
No More Parades is the second of four in Ford Madox Ford's Parade's End tetralogy, a work that Ford hoped would contribute to the obviating of all future wars. The novel follows Christopher Tietjens, a wealthy British landowner and the last British Tory; his unfaithful wife, Sylvia; and his mistress, Valentine Wannop. Highlighting the tension between traditional values and the new reality of a world marred by war, the novel details Tietjens' turmoils in both his personal life and on the warfront—and what follows when those struggles become one and the same.  
The Parade's End tetralogy privileges not the conflict of World War I itself, but the impact the war had on its participants and upon society writ large. It is often referred to as one of the greatest 20th century novels, and one of the best depictions of war in literature. The 2012 television adaptation, written by Tom Stoppard and starring Benedict Cumberbatch and Rebecca Hall, was nominated for two Primetime Emmy Awards and seven BAFTA Television Awards.

    This chilling, futuristic novel, written in 1913 and first published the following year, was incredibly prophetic on a major scale. Wells was a genius and visionary, as demonstrated by many of his other works, but this book is clearly one of his best. He predicts nuclear warfare years before research began and describes the chain reactions involved and the resulting radiation. He describes a weapon of enormous destructive power, used from the air that would wipe out everything for miles, and actually used the term "atomic bombs." This book may have been at least part of the original inspiration for the development of atomic weapons, as well as presenting many other ideas that would ultimately come to pass. Some ideas may still be coming, including a one-world government referred to as The World Republic, that will attempt to end all wars.

    The story proper begins with Avis Everhard, a daughter of a renowned physicist, John Cunningham, and future wife of socialist Ernest Everhard. At first, Avis Everhard does not agree with Ernest's assertion that the whole contemporary social system is based on exploitation of labour. She proceeds to investigate the conditions the workers live in and those terrible conditions make her change her mind and accept Ernest's worldview. Similarly, Bishop Morehouse does not initially believe in the horrors described by Ernest but then becomes convinced of their truth and is confined to a madhouse because of his new views.
