Sinopse

L.M. Montgomery’s The Blue Castle is a deeply romantic and quietly rebellious novel about a woman who dares to break free from the life others have chosen for her. Set in the rugged beauty of early 20th-century Ontario, it follows Valancy Stirling, a timid and overlooked woman of twenty-nine whose days are dictated by her overbearing family and the stifling social codes of her small town. Her only escape lies in her vivid daydreams of the Blue Castle—a place where she imagines herself free, bold, and loved.     When Valancy receives unexpected news that shatters her perception of time and safety, she makes the first daring choice of her life: to live honestly and for herself. She leaves behind everything familiar and scandalizes her relatives by befriending outcasts, challenging norms, and eventually striking out into the wilderness with a mysterious man known as Barney Snaith. What begins as a retreat from the world becomes a profound journey toward love, self-discovery, and quiet joy in a life lived authentically.     First published in 1926, The Blue Castle is one of Montgomery’s few adult novels, but it pulses with the same emotional intelligence, humor, and lyricism that made Anne of Green Gables a classic. This Classicus edition reintroduces a tale that is by turns dreamy, defiant, and tender—a novel that speaks to anyone who has ever longed to escape, to reinvent, or to finally choose happiness on their own terms.

    Amoretti: a Sonnet Sequence

    ""Amoretti" is a captivating sequence of 89 sonnets written by the renowned English poet Edmund Spenser. These sonnets follow the tradition of Petrarchan sonnets, a popular form during the Renaissance period. Let's explore more about this poetic work:  The Amoretti (meaning little love poems) is a sequence of 89 sonnets written in the tradition of the Petrarchan sonnets, a popular form for poets of the Renaissance period. Spenser's sequence has been largely neglected in modern times, while those of his contemporaries William Shakespeare and Sir Philip Sidney have been acclaimed. However, because of the artistic skill, along with the emotion and the humor exhibited, these poems deserve a broader hearing, even though they may be somewhat difficult for the present-day reader, partly through Spenser's love for words and expressions that were already archaic in his time."

    France’s favorite gentleman thief, Arsène Lupin, returns in The Hollow Needle! 
    Lupin is back to his trademark intricately plotted crimes, stealing from the wealthy with stealth and style. He easily evades the best efforts of Inspector Ganimard and the English detective Holmlock Shears, but when it comes to Isidore Beautrelet, an amateur detective still in high school, Lupin may have met his match. Beautrelet becomes quite the thorn in his side, and he may even be clever enough to thwart Lupin. 
    But even Beautrelet may not be the greatest threat to Lupin’s schemes: it may be instead the woman who has stolen his heart … the woman to whom he has promised to give up his life of crime. Will he be able to keep his word? Or will the riches of France prove too tempting for this gentilhomme-cambrioleur?
