Musical Tables - Billy Collins
"I’ve grown old–now my own namerings a bell."In each of the short poems in Billy Collins’s Musical Tables, the former United States Poet Laureate tempers his characteristically jocular voice with what he calls the “thrill of mortality†– flashes of profundity amongst the mundane, startling reminders of the wonder of being alive.Through the brevity of these poems, Collins’ knack for coaxing the poetry out of the everyday becomes ever more refined. Whether reflecting on mornings spent in the thicket of Los Angeles traffic, or turning over clichés on the tongue until old metaphors become new again, Musical Tables is Billy Collins at his most meditative: brief, and all the more brilliant for it.''America’s favourite poet'' – Wall Street Journal

Water, Water - Billy Collins
''Among the best poems that Collins has ever written'' – NPRIn Water, Water Billy Collins writes with joy and wonder about the beauties and ironies of everyday life. The best poems, he believes, begin in clarity and end with a hint of the sublime: A cat learns to drink from a swimming pool. An astronaut recites Emily Dickinson in space. Here is a writer devotedly in love with the world around him, fascinated by its pleasures but generously sensitive of its pains.Ever a laureate of the oblique, Collins is especially sensitive to disappearances and acts of concealment, sketching objects by the outlines their absence leaves: ‘Everything in this hard place’, reflects one voice in ‘Crying in Class’, ‘is designed to disappear.’ From grief’s soft echoes, to the atheist equally afraid of heaven and hell, Collins remains as keenly vigilant of the light as he does the shadows which dance at its edges.‘A poet of plenitude, irony, and Augustan grace’ The New Yorker''Witty, wry and tender when it hurts, Water, Water is a pleasure to read and easy to give'' – The Washington Post

The Moonstone - Wilkie Collins
The Moonstone is one of the first true works of detective fiction, in which Wilkie Collins established the groundwork for the genre itself. This Penguin Classics edition is edited with an introduction by Sandra Kemp.The Moonstone, a priceless yellow diamond, is looted from an Indian temple and maliciously bequeathed to Rachel Verinder. On her eighteenth birthday, her friend and suitor Franklin Blake brings the gift to her. That very night, it is stolen again. No one is above suspicion, as the idiosyncratic Sergeant Cuff and the Franklin piece together a puzzling series of events as mystifying as an opium dream and as deceptive as the nearby Shivering Sand. The intricate plot and modern technique of multiple narrators made Wilkie Collins''s 1868 work a huge success in the Victorian sensation genre. With a reconstruction of the crime, red herrings and a ''locked-room'' puzzle, The Moonstone was also a major precursor of the modern mystery novel.In her introduction Sandra Kemp explores The Moonstone''s the detective elements of Collins''s writing, and reveals how Collins''s sensibilities were untypical of his era.Wilkie Collins (1824-1889) was born in London in 1824, the eldest son of the landscape painter William Collins. In 1846 he was entered to read for the bar at Lincoln''s Inn, where he gained the knowledge that was to give him much of the material for his writing. From the early 1850s he was a friend of Charles Dickens, who produced and acted in two melodramas written by Collins, The Lighthouse and The Frozen Deep. Of his novels, Collins is best remembered for The Woman in White (1859), No Name (1862), Armadale (1866) and The Moonstone (1868).If you enjoyed The Moonstone you might like Collins''s The Woman in White, also available in Penguin Classics.''Probably the very finest detective story ever written''Dorothy L. Sayers''The first, the longest and the best of modern modern English detective novels''T.S. Eliot

Dance in Musical Theatre
From Oklahoma! and West Side Story, to Spring Awakening and Hamilton, dance remains one of the most important and key factors in musical theatre. Through the integration of song and dance in the ''dream ballets'' of choreographers like Agnes De Mille; the triple threat performances of Jerome Robbins’ dancers; the signature style creation by choreographers like Bob Fosse with dancers like Gwen Verdon; and the contemporary, identity-driven work of choreographers like Camille A. Brown, the history of the body in movement is one that begs study and appreciation. Dance in Musical Theatre offers guidelines in how to read this movement by analyzing it in terms of composition and movement vocabulary whilst simultaneously situating it both historically and critically. This collection provides the tools, terms, history, and movement theory for reading, interpreting, and centralizing a discussion of dance in musical theatre, importantly, with added emphasis on women and artists of color. Bringing together musical theatre and dance scholars, choreographers and practitioners, this edited collection highlights musical theatre case studies that employ dance in a dramaturgically essential manner, tracking the emergence of the dancer as a key figure in the genre, and connecting the contributions to past and present choreographers. This collection foregrounds the work of the ensemble, incorporating firsthand and autoethnographic accounts that intersect with historical and cultural contexts. Through a selection of essays, this volume conceptualizes the function of dance in musical: how it functions diegetically as a part of the story or non-diegetically as an amplification of emotion, as well as how the dancing body works to reveal character psychology by expressing an unspoken aspect of the libretto, embodying emotions or ideas through metaphor or abstraction.Dance in Musical Theatre makes dance language accessible for instructors, students, and musical theatre enthusiasts, providing the tools to critically engage with the work of important choreographers and dancers from the beginning of the 20th century to today.

The Art and Practice of Musical Theatre Choreography - Cassie Abate
What does a musical theatre choreographer actually do? They just ''make up the steps'', right? This book firstly debunks the misunderstandings around what musical theatre choreographers actually do, demonstrating their need to have an in-depth understanding of storytelling, music theory, performance practices and plot structure in order to create movement that enhances and enlivens the musical. Secondly, it equips the musical theatre choreographer with all the tools needed to create nuanced, informed and inspired movement for productions, through structured activities that build specific skills (such as ''notating the script'' and ''scoring the score'').Traditionally, this training has been something of a series of secrets, passed from mentor to apprentice. The author demystifies the process to make the previously undisclosed “tricks of the trade†accessible to all choreographers, everywhere. Covering the entire process of choreographing a musical from the first script reading to the final curtain call, this book makes case for the absolute integrity of the choreographer to any musical theatre production and sets out the theoretical principles of choreography alongside the practical application during every step of the production process.

No Name - Wilkie Collins
A witty, intricately-plotted exploration of a sudden fall from grace, the Penguin Classics edition of Wilkie Collins''s No Name is edited with an introduction and notes by Mark Ford.Magdalen and her sister Norah, beloved daughters of Mr and Mrs Vanstone, find themselves the victims of a catastrophic oversight. Their father has neglected to change his will, and when the girls are suddenly orphaned, their inheritance goes to their uncle. Now penniless, the conventional Norah takes up a position as a governess, but the defiant and tempestuous Magdalen cannot accept the loss of what is rightfully hers and decides to do whatever she can to win it back. With the help of cunning Captain Wragge, she concocts a scheme that involves disguise, deceit and astonishing self-transformation. In this compelling, labyrinthine story Wilkie Collins brilliantly demonstrates the gap between justice and the law, and in the subversive Magdalen he portrays one of the most exhilarating heroines of Victorian fiction.In his introduction Mark Ford examines themes of identity and illegitimacy within Victorian society and compares No Name to Collins''s more ''sensational'' fiction. This edition also includes notes and a bibliography.Wilkie Collins (1824-1889) was born in London in 1824, the eldest son of the landscape painter William Collins. In 1846 he was entered to read for the bar at Lincoln''s Inn, where he gained the knowledge that was to give him much of the material for his writing. From the early 1850s he was a friend of Charles Dickens, who produced and acted in two melodramas written by Collins, The Lighthouse and The Frozen Deep. Of his novels, Collins is best remembered for The Woman in White (1859), No Name (1862), Armadale (1866) and The Moonstone (1868).If you enjoyed No Name, you might like Anthony Trollope''s Can You Forgive Her?, also available in Penguin Classics.

Musical Kinetics - Tomáš Kuhn, Vlastislav Matoušek, Vladimír Tichý
Musical Kinetics je reprezentativním dokumentem toho, jak se v českém prostředí v minulých desetiletích přistupovalo k pojetí a výzkumu hudebního času. Východiskem teoretického uchopení kinetických jevů je princip hierarchie tak, jak jej formuloval koncem šedesátých let Karel Risinger. Na tomto abstraktním základě staví svou systematiku hudebního rytmu, metra a tempa Vladimír Tichý. Jeho obecná systematika je pak rozpracována ve dvou navazujících studiích. Tomáš Kuhn aplikuje Tichého přístup na oblast jazzové hudby a Vlastislav Matoušek na etnickou hudbu. Jejich práce dokazují obecnou platnost hierarchického principu i v jiné než novodobé evropské hudbě. Součástí knihy je věcný rejstřík společný všem třem studím, ze kterého vyplývají další zajímavé souvislosti. Jde o první z plánované řady publikací v angličtině, které by měly splatit dluh české hudební teorii, v zahraničí zatím málo známé. Musical Kinetics is a representative document of the approach of Czech music-theorists to the concept and exploration of musical time at the turn of the millennium. The theoretical starting point for grasping the kinetic phenomena is the principle of hierarchy as formulated by Karel Risinger in the late sixties of the past century. On this abstract base, Vladimír Tichý builds his systematics of musical rhythm, meter and tempo. Tomáš Kuhn applies Tichý´s ideas to jazz and Vlastislav Matoušek to ethnic music. Their works prove general validity of the hierarchical principle also in other than European art music. The book includes a subject index common for all the three studies providing thus more interesting connections. The publication is the first of a series in English which should pay the debt to the Czech musical theory, not much known abroad up to now.

Great by Choice - Jim Collins, Morten T. Hansen
THE NEW QUESTIONTen years after the worldwide bestseller Good to Great, Jim Collins returns with another groundbreaking work, this time to ask: Why do some companies thrive in uncertainty, even chaos, and others do not? Based on nine years of research, buttressed by rigorous analysis and infused with engaging stories, Collins and his colleague, Morten Hansen, enumerate the principles for building a truly great enterprise in unpredictable, tumultuous, and fast-moving times.THE NEW STUDY Great by Choice distinguishes itself from Collins''s prior work by its focus not just on performance, but also on the type of unstable environments faced by leaders today. With a team of more than twenty researchers, Collins and Hansen studied companies that rose to greatness - beating their industry indexes by a minimum of ten times over fifteen years - in environments characterized by big forces and rapid shifts that leaders could not predict or control. The research team then contrasted these "10X companies" to a carefully selected set of comparison companies that failed to achieve greatness in similarly extreme environments.THE NEW FINDINGSThe study results were full of provocative surprises. Such as: * The best leaders were not more risk taking, more visionary, and more creative than the comparisons; they were more disciplined, more empirical, and more paranoid.* Innovation by itself turns out not to be the trump card in a chaotic and uncertain world; more important is the ability to scale innovation, to blend creativity with discipline.* Following the belief that leading in a "fast world" always requires "fast decisions" and "fast action" is a good way to get killed.* The great companies changed less in reaction to a radically changing world than the comparison companies.The authors challenge conventional wisdom with thought-provoking, sticky, and supremely practical concepts. They include 10Xers; the 20 Mile March; Fire Bullets then Cannonballs; Leading above the Death Line; Zoom Out, Then Zoom In; and the SMaC Recipe. Finally, in the last chapter, Collins and Hansen present their most provocative and original analysis: defining, quantifying, and studying the role of luck. The great companies and the leaders who built them were not luckier than the comparisons, but they did get a higher Return on Luck. This book is classic Collins: contrarian, data driven, and uplifting. He and Hansen show convincingly that, even in a chaotic and uncertain world, greatness happens by choice, not by chance.

The Musical Theater of Stephen Schwartz - Paul R. Laird
As the composer/lyricist for Godspell, Pippin, Wicked, and other musicals, Stephen Schwartz has enjoyed one of the most significant careers in American musical theater for more than four decades. Schwartz has also achieved success on the big screen, contributing to such films as Enchanted, The Prince of Egypt, and Pocahontas. For his work, he has received six Tony nominations, three Grammys, and three Academy Awards. The Musical Theater of Stephen Schwartz: From Godspell to Wicked and Beyond is a detailed examination of Schwartz’s various projects throughout his career. Musicologist Paul R. Laird discusses at length Schwartz’s major shows and also considers his other ventures, such as the music and lyrics for animated features from Disney and Dreamworks. The book focuses on two major aspects of Schwartz’s creations: the process of collaboration resulting in a project’s completion and a descriptive analysis of his music and lyrics. Laird also describes each show’s critical reception and its place in the larger history of musical theater. Based on extensive interviews with Schwartz and a number of his major collaborators, this book provides a rare look into the creation of the composer and lyricist’s shows and films. The Musical Theater of Stephen Schwartz is intended for fans as well as students and professional researchers in music, theater, and the musical theater.

Michael Collins and the Women Who Spied For Ireland - Meda Ryan
Michael Collins and the Women Who Spied for Ireland is the first book to concentrate on the crucial role played by women in Collins''s personal and working life. From his boyhood in an overwhelmingly female household in West Cork, women brought out the best in him and he brought out the best in them. Susan Killeen, his first girlfriend, remained a steadfast ally throughout his life. From 1917, his girlfriend, Madeline (Dilly) Dicker, helped to ease the burden of his huge workload as well as acting as a secret agent. Society ladies Moya Llewelyn Davies and Lady Hazel Lavery were conduits between Collins and the British Establishment and active participants in his work of espionage. In the final years of his life the true romantic passion between him and Kitty Kiernan is testified to by their frequent correspondence.These women, and many others who participated in the national struggle, women such as Kathleen Clarke, Leslie Price, Peg Barrett, Nancy O''Brien, Madge Hales and Collins'' sister Mary Collins Powell, are woven into this fascinating narrative of Collins'' life.

Bach's Art of Fugue and Musical Offering - Matthew Dirst
The initial volume in a series of American Bach Society Guides, Bach''s Art of Fugue and Musical Offering is a comprehensive study of two closely related masterworks of the late Baroque fugal style. This compact guide, intended for practitioners, music scholars, and a general readership, summarizes a considerable body of knowledge about these famously cerebral collections in an engaging and accessible style. Bach specialist and keyboard player Matthew Dirst explains the Art of Fugue and Musical Offering''s idiosyncratic musical language while reviewing how both projects took shape during Bach''s final decade. They reflect Bach''s lifelong fascination with learned counterpoint, as demonstrated in elaborate series of fugues and canons in both and in an unusually intricate trio sonata in the latter. Dirst provides commentary on individual movements and groups of pieces and on the historical reception of this music, including its impact on other disciplines. Recurring themes include Bach''s diligent exploration of contrapuntal types and techniques, his embrace of musical games, and his creative assimilation of diverse musical styles.

Michael Collins (BLU-RAY)
Blu-ray film Michael Collins HD [1996]. České titulky. Dolby Digital. Příběh Michaela Collinse, vůdce boje za irskou svobodu, jehož odvaha a tragický osud formovaly dějiny národa. Irsko 1916. Jeho sny vzbuzovaly naději. Jeho slova rozněcovala vášeň. Jeho odvaha určila osud národa. Píše se rok 1920 a Irsko prožívá dramatické okamžiky přerodu ostrova na svobodnou a nezávislou zemi. Irové jsou hrdým národem, který si nade vše váží klasických mravních hodnot a víry v Boha. Stejně tak ale dokáží téměř vše obětovat pocitu svobody a národní svrchovanosti. Průsečíkem národního charakteru se stává Michael Collins, jemuž se podařilo sjednotit široké masy v celonárodní spontánní hnutí. Zároveň je však i zakladatelem Irské republikánské armády (IRA), který zároveň stál u zrodu jejích teroristických praktik... Režisér Neil Jordan si pro titulní roli vybral Liama Neesona, který postavě Michaela Collinse dokázal vtisknout rozměr nespoutané touhy po svobodě, jakož i věčné dramatické napětí, oscilující mezi individuálními a celospolečenskými zájmy. Jeho osud je ve svém tragickém vyznění až příliš podobný všem ostatním osobnostem, které i za cenu nejvyšší posouvaly vývoj dějin kupředu.Bonusy:• Komentář Neila Jordana• Na slovíčko s Neilem Jordanem• Vystřižené scény• Trailer• The South Bank Show Rozhovor s Neilem Jordanem a záběry skutečného Michaela Collinse – dokument

Optimalizace struktury displeje nám umožnila zvýšit sytost barev o 30 % ve srovnání s předchozí generací. E Ink Kaleido 3 využívá technologii E Ink Print Color ePaper, ve které pole barevných filtrů (CFA) doplňuje základ E Ink Carta 1200 a zobrazuje plnobarevný obraz. ONYX BOOX Tab XC Co je Regal? Regal je provozní režim obrazovky, který umožňuje snížit počet artefaktů na obrazovce při částečném obnovení. Pokud je tato funkce zapnutá, není nutná úplná aktualizace obrazovky. Ovládání duálním senzorem ONYX BOOX Tab X C má dvě senzorové vrstvy. Nad povrchem obrazovky se nachází kapacitní vrstva s multidotykovým ovládáním. Intuitivními pohyby prstů můžete otáčet stránky elektronických knih a přibližovat dokumenty. Pod panelem E Ink se navíc nachází indukční senzorová vrstva. Díky ní můžete ručně psát poznámky a kreslit pomocí speciálního stylusu, který rozpoznává 4096 stupňů tlaku a umožňuje kreslit s extrémní přesností. Podsvícení obrazovky Technologie MOON Light 2 umožňuje používat zařízení ve tmě nebo za špatných světelných podmínek bez poškození zraku. Při použití této funkce se vytváří jemné světlo obrazovky, které je optimální pro čtení v tmavých místnostech. Tento systém předního osvětlení má regulaci teploty barev a díky technologii Flicker-Free je chvění obrazovky zcela eliminováno. Co je MOON Light 2 Nejnovější výzkumy ukázaly, že modré světlo brání produkci melatoninu (regulátoru denních rytmů), který je nezbytný pro spánek člověka. Proto je po čtení na zářící obrazovce běžného tabletu nebo chytrého telefonu často obtížné usnout. MOON Light 2 umožňuje nezávisle nastavit jas studeného a teplého LED světla, přičemž si můžete dle libosti vybrat bílé světlo pro čtení během dne a více žlutého pro čtení před spaním. Bez blikání Technologie Flicker-Free zcela eliminuje blikání LED diod použitých v tomto systému předního osvětlení. Čtečky ONYX BOOX E jsou napájeny zdrojem stejnosměrného proudu. Technologie Flicker-Free výrazně snižuje nepohodlí a únavu očí a snižuje pravděpodobnost bolestí hlavy způsobených dlouhým používáním zařízení. Vysoká rychlost obnovení obrazovky Nový grafický procesor s technologií BOOX Super Refresh zajišťuje zvýšenou rychlost obnovování obrazovky a plynulý pohyb objektů na obrazovce. Podpora formátů Software BOOX umožňuje otevírat řadu různých textových a obrazových formátů. Během čtení můžete měnit styl a velikost písma, umístění stránek, přidávat záložky a přibližovat dokumenty dle libosti. Dodatečná ochrana obrazovky Na obrazovku elektronické čtečky E Ink je naneseno ochranné sklo ONYX Glass, které ji chrání před poškrábáním a dalším poškozením. Nové sklo umožnilo upustit od dalších okrajů obrazovky, takže obrazovka je v jedné rovině s tělem zařízení. Díky tomu je práce s touto čtečkou elektronických knih pohodlnější a její vzhled je modernější. Speciální povlak navíc snižuje pravděpodobnost odlesků na obrazovce. Co je ONYX Glass? ONYX Glass je nová generace ochranných skel od společnosti ONYX. Hliníkosilikátové sklo má zvýšenou průhlednost a zajišťuje absenci zkreslení původního obrazu. Sklo se nanáší na přední světelnou vrstvu bez vzduchové mezery během výroby zobrazovacího modulu. Místo nanášení matné vrstvy, která může snižovat kontrast, se používá 5% leptání. Poskytuje vylepšenou ochranu proti oslnění a nebrání průchodu světla. Vynikající technické specifikace Osmijádrový procesor s taktovací frekvencí 2,8 GHz spolu s 6 GB RAM zajišťují pohodlnou práci i s těmi nejsložitějšími dokumenty. 128 GB energeticky nezávislé paměti umožňuje ukládat velké množství dat přímo do zařízení. Bluetooth Díky vestavěnému modulu Bluetooth 5.0 můžete připojit externí zařízení. Zařízení podporuje OTG, díky čemuž můžete připojit další periferie, které nevyžadují ovladače. Funkce automatického otáčení obrazovky Vestavěný G-senzor automaticky vybere správnou orientaci textu při otočení zařízení.

How the Mighty Fall - Jim Collins
Decline can be avoided. Decline can be detected. Decline can be reversed.Amidst the desolate landscape of fallen great companies, Jim Collins began to wonder: How do the mighty fall? Can decline be detected early and avoided? How far can a company fall before the path toward doom becomes inevitable and unshakable? How can companies reverse course?In How the Mighty Fall, Collins confronts these questions, offering leaders the well-founded hope that they can learn how to stave off decline and, if they find themselves falling, reverse their course. Collins' research project-more than four years in duration-uncovered five step-wise stages of decline: Stage 1: Hubris Born of SuccessStage 2: Undisciplined Pursuit of MoreStage 3: Denial of Risk and PerilStage 4: Grasping for SalvationStage 5: Capitulation to Irrelevance or DeathBy understanding these stages of decline, leaders can substantially reduce their chances of falling all the way to the bottom. Great companies can stumble, badly, and recover.Every institution, no matter how great, is vulnerable to decline. There is no law of nature that the most powerful will inevitably remain at the top. Anyone can fall and most eventually do.But, as Collins' research emphasizes, some companies do indeed recover-in some cases, coming back even stronger-even after having crashed into the depths of Stage 4. Decline, it turns out, is largely self-inflicted, and the path to recovery lies largely within our own hands. We are not imprisoned by our circumstances, our history, or even our staggering defeats along the way.As long as we never get entirely knocked out of the game, hope always remains. The mighty can fall, but they can often rise again.

Evolution of a Taboo - Max D. Price
Pigs are among the most peculiar animals domesticated in the Ancient Near East. Their story, from domestication to taboo, has fascinated historians, archaeologists, and religious studies scholars for decades. Rejecting simple explanations, this book adopts an evolutionary approach that relies on zooarchaeology and texts to unravel the cultural significance of swine in the Near East from the Paleolithic to the present day. Five major themes are covered: The domestication of the pig from wild boars in the Neolithic period, the unique roles that pigs developed in agricultural economies before and after the development of complex societies, the raising of swine in cities, the shifting ritual roles of pigs, and the formation and development of the pork taboo in Judaism and, later, Islam. The origins and significance of this taboo have inspired much debate. Evolution of a Taboo contends that the well-known taboo described in Leviticus evolved over time, beginning with conflicts between Israelites and Philistines in the early part of the Iron Age, and later was mobilized by Judah''s priestly elite in the writing of the Biblical texts. Centuries later, the pig taboo became a point of contention in the ethno-political struggles between Jewish and Greco-Roman cultures in the Levant; later still, between Jews, Christians, and Muslims. Through these conflicts, the pig taboo grew in power. As this rich account illustrates, it came to define the relations between pigs and people in the Near East and beyond, up to the present day.

The Moonstone - Wilkie Collins
Who, in the name of wonder, had taken the Moonstone out of Miss Rachel''s drawer?A celebrated Indian yellow diamond is first stolen from India, then vanishes from a Yorkshire country house. Who took it? And where is it now? A dramatist as well as a novelist, Wilkie Collins gives to each of his narratorsa household servant, a detective, a lawyer, a cloth-eared Evangelical, a dying medical manvibrant identities as they separately tell the part of the story that concerns themselves.One of the great triumphs of nineteenth-century sensation fiction, The Moonstone tells of a mystery that for page after page becomes more, not less inexplicable. Collins''s novel of addictions is itself addictive, moving through a sequence of startling revelations towards the final disclosure of the truth. Entranced with double lives, with men and women who only know part of the story, Collins weaves their narratives into a web of suspense. The Moonstone is a text that grows imaginatively out of the secrets that the unconventional Collins was obliged to keep as he wrote the novel.

'We all want to be Lucky for one specific reason, and it isn't her wealth or her looks. It's because she makes things happen' DAISY BUCHANAN'Jackie Collins’s daring, unapologetic stroke of the pen, combined with her glorious wit, has single-handedly given creative license to new generations of authors and storytellers.'

Man and Wife - Wilkie Collins
`This time the fiction is founded upon facts'' stated Wilkie Collins in his Preface to Man and Wife (1870). Many Victorian writers responded to contemporary debates on the rights and the legal status of women, and here Collins questions the deeply inequitable marriage laws of his day. Man and Wife examines the plight of a woman who, promised marriage by one man, comes to believe that she may inadvertently have gone through a form of marriage with his friend, as recognized by the archaic laws of Scotland and Ireland. From this starting-point Collins develops a radical critique of the values and conventions of Victorian society. Collins had already developed a reputation as the master of the `sensation novel'', and Man and Wife is as fast moving and unpredictable as The Moonstone and The Woman in White. During the novel the atmosphere grows increasingly sinister as the setting moves from a country house to a London suburb and a world of confinement, plotting, and murder. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World''s Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford''s commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.
