Synopsis

A Gripping Tale of Science, Monstrosity, and the Human Search for Identity
Embark on a thrilling journey into the realm of scientific ambition and its monstrous consequences in Mary Shelley's groundbreaking masterpiece, Frankenstein. Follow the story of Victor Frankenstein, a brilliant but obsessive scientist, as he attempts to unravel the secrets of life and create a sentient being from inanimate matter.
Driven by an insatiable desire for knowledge and the power to conquer death, Victor assembles his creation from body parts, unaware of the horrors he is about to unleash. Upon breathing life into his creation, Victor is horrified by the creature's grotesque appearance and abandons it, leaving it to fend for itself in a world that rejects and despises it.
Alone and ostracized, the creature yearns for acceptance, love, and a place in society. It seeks out Victor, demanding that he create a companion for it, promising to leave humanity in peace if his request is granted. However, Victor, consumed by guilt and fear, reneges on his promise, leading the creature to embark on a path of vengeance, wreaking havoc and destruction in its wake.
Frankenstein explores profound themes of creation, responsibility, and the consequences of scientific ambition. It challenges readers to confront their perceptions of beauty, humanity, and the nature of life itself. Shelley's timeless masterpiece continues to captivate and inspire readers, leaving an indelible mark on the literary landscape.
Delve into the depths of scientific pursuit and the consequences of unchecked ambition. Download your copy of Frankenstein today and experience a literary masterpiece that has stood the test of time.

    We broke our new series on learning Romanian down into different learning stages. Start with the “Lower Beginner” books followed by the “Beginner” and “Upper Beginner” books. Next, progress to the “Intermediate” series, then test and reinforce your knowledge with the “Conversations” series.  
    This audiobook is divided into units.While it provides different learning patterns and accommodates various needs, this audiobook focuses on helping you improve your ability to understand, speak, and memorise Romanian. The sample will give you a taste of what you can look forward to.  
    In Unit 1 you will hear Romanian decoded with each syllable spoken very slowly and clearly with repetition. Immediately before each sentence is spoken, you will hear the translation, so you will always understand what is being said. Unit 2 focuses solely on increasing your listening ability, which will improve your abilities to engage in dialogue with a native Romanian speaker. This chapter requires you to listen very carefully to nuances in the language.  
    By Unit 3 you will already notice progress in your abilities to speak and understand Romanian. The spoken translation is followed by two repetitions in Romanian at a completely natural speed. While you are learning to process naturally spoken Romanian, Units 3 and 4 will help you memorise new vocabulary and full sentences. In Unit 5 you can test yourself on how much you have learned. If you are having difficulties, we suggest you revisit the listening, speaking, or memorisation section of Units 1, 2 3 or 4, according to what you need more help with.

    This book bundle contains the following three titles:  
    - Derrida: Jacques Derrida, one of the most influential philosophers of the 20th century, revolutionized the way we think about language, meaning, and interpretation. His development of the concept of deconstruction has left a profound impact on philosophy, literary theory, and critical thought. To understand Derrida's legacy, it is essential to explore the key elements of his intellectual journey and how his ideas continue to shape contemporary discourse. 
    - Deconstructionism: Deconstructionism emerged in the late 20th century as a philosophical and literary movement that fundamentally questioned the nature of meaning, language, and interpretation. It is primarily associated with the work of French philosopher Jacques Derrida, who, in the 1960s and 1970s, began to develop ideas that would challenge long-held assumptions in philosophy, literary theory, and critical thought. The movement was a response to structuralism, which sought to uncover the underlying structures that govern language and society. In contrast, deconstruction aimed to show that meaning is inherently unstable and that texts and concepts can never be fully fixed or understood in a singular, unchanging way. 
    - Michel Foucault: Michel Foucault, a French philosopher, historian, and social theorist, is renowned for his critical exploration of power, knowledge, and social institutions. Born in 1926, Foucault’s work spans a range of disciplines, from philosophy to sociology, psychology, and political science. His intellectual journey reflects a unique approach to understanding human societies, focusing not on abstract metaphysical systems but on the structures that shape human behavior, knowledge, and institutions.
