The Old Ladies – ebook
Hugh Walpole
The book opens shortly before Christmas, many years ago. The city of Polchester was an old rickety building on a cliff above old grass.

These old women are only 70 years old, but in the history of Walpole, written in 1924, they are seriously ancient, poor,...Data dostępności:

Expiation – ebook
E. Phillips Oppenheim
A solitary cabin stood far away in the backwoods of Canada, outside all tracks of civilization, in a region which only the native Indians and a few daring trappers cared to penetrate. Rudely built of pine logs, it was ill-calculated to withstand the piercing cold and frost which, for nine months out of the twelve, holds this region in an iron grip. Around it, a small clearing had been effected, but...Data dostępności:

The Pickwick Papers – ebook
Charles Dickens
This novel demonstrates Dickens experimenting with building his own voice. The Pickwick Papers is a series of linear adventures, unlike the convoluted plots of Dickens’s later novels. In other words, we follow our heroes from one stop to the next and meet interesting characters, rather than unraveling a mystery. The novel is a late example of the picaresque, a style of story in which we follow a rough,...Data dostępności:
