Oliver Twist - Charles Dickens
Příběh malého sirotka Olivera a jeho putování Londýnem plným chudoby, hladu a zločinů dojímá čtenáře už téměř dvě století. Oliver Twist, vyrůstající v sirotčinci krutého pana Bumbla, se ve svém životě potýká s různými ústrky, až nakonec své trýznitele opustí a zakotví ve zlodějské bandě žida Fagina. Tam jej zlodějskému řemeslu učí obratný a prohnaný Ferina Lišák, při jedné loupežné akci však Olivera zatknou a postaví před soud. Zdá se, že se na Olivera nakonec i obrátí štěstí, když se jej ujme dobrotivý pan Barlow, ale parta zlodějů nenechá Olivera tak snadno odejít a jednoho dne jej jednoduše unesou zpátky k Faginovi. Pak ho čekají další spletité události, související s jeho nejasným a tajemným původem. Ukáže se, že Oliver má pravděpodobně nárok na značné dědictví, je tu však ještě jeho nevlastní bratr Edward Leeford zvaný Monks, který se s Oliverem v žádném případě nehodlá o majetek dělit…

Vánoční koleda - Charles Dickens
Objevte kouzlo nejoblíbenější vánoční pohádky na světě.Příběh vypráví o starém Ebenezeru Scroogovi, který miluje peníze a nenávidí Vánoce. Vždy sedává sám ve svém velkém a chladném domě a zlostně pozoruje rozsvícená okna okolních domů, kde si lidé v útulném kruhu rodin pochutnávají na štědrovečerní hostině. Scrooge si lehne do postele, ale nedokáže usnout. Vtom ho navštíví tři duchové a jeden po druhém ho berou na poučné cesty, které by tomuhle držgrešli měly otevřít oči. Scrooge zjistí, že nic není takové, jak si dosud myslel. Přehodnotí svůj životní postoj, nebo zůstane nadále plný zloby a nenávisti? Povídka Vánoční koleda vyšla poprvé 19. prosince 1843. První vydání se vyprodalo během několika dní a Londýňané stáli hodiny v nekonečných frontách, jen aby si ji mohli poslechnout v podání samotného Charlese Dickense. Čtenáři přijali nevšední příběh s nadšením a dodnes se tvrdí, že tato kniha ve viktoriánské společnosti znovu probudila zájem o vánoční tradice, včetně koled a posílání svátečních blahopřání. Zároveň ve Spojeném království vyvolala nečekanou vlnu dobročinnosti i mezi bohatými průmyslníky, nechvalně známými jako „loupežní baroni“. Autor původně své dílo zamýšlel jako kritiku kapitalistických vykořisťovatelů, dnes však patří k vánoční klasice. Vánoční koleda inspirovala ke vzniku mnohých divadelních her a animovaných nebo hraných filmů a neustále oslovuje malé i velké čtenáře na celém světě.

Vánoční koleda - Charles Dickens
Vánoční koleda je povídka o lakomém, chladném, necitelném a mrzoutském obchodníkovi Vydřigrošovi a jeho nápravě poté, co ho navštíví tři duchové o Štědrém večeru.Příběh začíná na Štědrý den, sedm let po smrti Ebenezerova obchodního partnera Vodrala. Během noci se Vydřigrošovi zjeví Vodralův duch a varuje ho, že jeho duše ponese těžká pouta na věčnosti, pokud nezmění své hrabivé způsoby. Předpovídá, že ho budou následovat další tři duchové. Ti Vydřigroše během následující noci skutečně navštíví.První duch, Duch minulých Vánoc, vezme pana Vydřigroše do doby jeho dětství a mládí, což se dotkne lakomcovy něžné stránky. Druhý, Duch současných Vánoc, mu ukáže tři různá místa s cílem vyvolat v obchodníkovi pocit zodpovědnosti. Třetí duch, Duch budoucích Vánoc, mučí Vydřigroše strašnou vizí budoucnosti, jaká ho čeká, pokud se nepoučí a nebude jednat podle toho, co viděl.Kniha byla prvně vydána 19. prosince 1843 s ilustracemi Johna Leeche a setkala se rychle s úspěchem a oslavou kritiků. Příběh byl vnímán jako obžaloba industriálního kapitalismu v 19. století a jako vrácení hodnoty svátkům a veselí ve Velké Británii i v Americe po období pochmurnosti. Vánoční koleda zůstává populární dodnes a byla adaptována ve filmu, opeře a dalších médiích.

Příběh dvou měst - Charles Dickens
Nové vydání jednoho z vrcholných Dickensových románů, považovaného za autorovo formálně nejdokonalejší dílo, vybavené desítkami ilustrací tří nejznámějších anglických ilustrátorů 19. a počátku 20. století, s nimiž je Dickensovo dílo neodmyslitelně spjato. Příběh dvou měst, jehož děj se odehrává v Londýně a v Paříži v době před Velkou francouzskou revolucí a během ní, spatřil světlo světa roku 1859. Původně byl vydáván na pokračování v časopise All the Year Round, jejž založil a řídil sám autor. Na pozadí pohnutých osudů ústředních postav – francouzského emigranta Charlese Darnaye, doktora Manetta, jeho dcery Lucie či úředníka Jarvise Lorryho – podává autor mimořádně působivý a emotivní obraz dramatických revolučních časů, kdy se svévole, násilí, běsnění davů a posléze i teror staly běžnou normou. Titulními dvěma městy, v nichž se příběh odehrává, jsou Paříž a Londýn, přičemž anglický klasik líčí Paříž jako centrum nelidskosti a zvráceného běsnění, zatímco Londýn, i přes své stinné stránky, pro něj zůstává městem rozumu a přetrvávající naděje na normální život. Strhující příběh o odvaze, obětavosti, lásce a odplatě ve stínu gilotiny.

This edition of A Christmas Carol is perfect for GCSE-level students: it comes complete with the novel, plus an introduction providing context, and a glossary explaining key terms. 'If I could work my will,' said Scrooge, indignantly, 'every idiot who goes about with "Merry Christmas" on his lips, should be boiled with his own pudding, and buried with a stake of holly through his heart.' Miser and misanthropist Ebenezer Scrooge hates the festive season. Can the visitations of his dead business partner Jacob Marley and the spirits of Christmas past, present and yet to come shake him from his habits, to show him the true value of Christmas? Dickens's 1843 story was written in response to the plight of the poor, the hungry, the exploited and the uneducated in Victorian society, suggesting that the true test of a society is the way it treats its children.

Night Shyamalan.Seven-year-old Wen and her parents, Eric and Andrew, are vacationing at a remote cabin on a quiet New Hampshire lake, with their closest neighbours more than two miles in either direction.As Wen catches grasshoppers in the front yard, a stranger unexpectedly appears in the driveway. Leonard is the largest man Wen has ever seen but he is young and friendly. Leonard and Wen talk and play until Leonard abruptly apologises and tells Wen, "None of what's going to happen is your fault". Three more strangers arrive at the cabin carrying unidentifiable, menacing objects. As Wen sprints inside to warn her parents, Leonard calls out, "Your dads won't want to let us in, Wen. But they have to. We need your help to save the world."So begins an unbearably tense, gripping tale of paranoia, sacrifice, apocalypse, and survival that escalates to a shattering conclusion, one in which the fate of a loving family and quite possibly all of humanity are intertwined.
