Jane Austen is without question one of England's most enduring & skilled novelists. With her wit social precision & unerring ability to create some of literature's most charismatic & believable heroines she mesmerises her readers as much today as when her novels were first published. Whether it is her sharp ironic gaze at the Gothic genre invoked by the adventures of Catherine Morland in Northanger Abbey; the diffident & much put-upon Fanny Price struggling to cope with her emotions in Mansfield Park; her delightfully paced comedy of manners & the machinations of the sisters Elinor & Marianne in Sense & Sensibility; the quiet strength of Anne Elliot in Persuasion succeeding in a world designed to subjugate her very existence; & Emma
- 'a heroine whom no one but myself will like' teased Austen
- yet another irresistible character on fire with imagination & foresight. Indeed not unlike her renowned creator. Jane Austen is as sure-footed in her steps through society's whirlpools of convention & prosaic mores as she is in her sometimes restrained but ever precise & enduring prose.

In The Complete Peanuts 1963-64: this volume is particularly rich in never-before-reprinted strips: Over 150 (more than one fifth of the book!) have never seen the light of day since their original appearance over 40 years ago so this will be a trove of undiscovered treasures even for avid Peanuts collectors. These lost" strips include Linus making a near-successful run for class president that is ultimately derailed by his religious beliefs (two words: "great" & "pumpkin") & Snoopy getting involved with a group of politically fanatical birds. One wonders: Was it the political edge in these stories that got them consigned to oblivion for so long? Also worthy of note is an extended never-reprinted sequence in which Snoopy gets ill & heads to the veterinarian hospital... Also in this

Volume:
Lucy's attempts at improving her friends branches out from her increasingly well-visited nickel psychiatry booth to an educational slideshow of Charlie Brown's faults (it's so long there's an intermission!). Also Snoopy's doghouse begins its conceptual expansion as Schulz reveals that the dog owns a Van Gogh & that the ceiling is so huge that Linus can paint a vast (and as it turns out unappreciated) "history of civilisation" mural on it. With an introduction by Bill Melendez."

Complete Novels Of James Joyce

This collection comprises of Joyce's three novels plus the short story collection Dubliners. Dubliners about Joyce's native city is faithful to his country seeing it unflinchingly and challenging every precedent and piety in Irish literature. The stories in Dubliners show us truants seducers hostesses corrupt politicians failing priests struggling musicians poets patriots and many more simply striving to get by. A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man falls between the realism of Dubliners and the symbolism of Ulysses. The novel is a highly autobiographical account of the youth of Stephen Dedalus who comes to realize that before he can become a true artist he must rid himself of the stultifying effects of the religion politics and essential bigotry of his life in late 19th century Ireland.
Written with a light touch it is perhaps the most accessible of Joyce's works. Ulysses is James Joyce's astonishing masterpiece. Scandalously frank it tells of the events which befall Leopold Bloom and Stephen Dedalus in Dublin on 16 June 1904 during which Bloom's voluptuous wife Molly commits adultery. Initially deemed obscene in England and the USA this richly-allusive novel revolutionary in its modernistic experimentalism was hailed as a work of genius by W. B. Yeats T. S. Eliot and Ernest Hemingway. Finnegans Wake is the book of Here Comes Everybody and Anna Livia Plurabelle and their family - their book but in a curious way the book of us all as well as all our books. Joyce's last great work it is not comprised of many borrowed styles like Ulysses but rather formulated as one dense
tongue-twisting soundscape. It also remains the most hilarious 'obscene' book of innuendos ever to be imagined.
