This is James Clavell's tour-de-force; an epic saga of one Pilot-Major John Blackthorne, and his integration into the struggles and strife of feudal Japan. Both entertaining and incisive, SHOGUN is a stunningly dramatic re-creation of a very different world. Starting with his shipwreck on this most alien of shores, the novel charts Blackthorne's rise from the status of reviled foreigner up to the heights of trusted advisor and eventually, Samurai. All as civil war looms over the fragile country.

''Clear, bright, burnished ... the moods that it expresses are a true kind of poetry'' The New York TimesTracing the lives of a group of friends, The Waves follows their development from childhood to middle age. While social events, individual achievements and disappointments form its narrative, the novel is most remarkable for the rich poetic language that expresses the inner life of its characters: their aspirations, their triumphs and regrets, their awareness of unity and isolation, and their questioning of the meaning of life itself. Perhaps more than any of Woolf''s novels, The Waves conveys the endless complexities of human experience.Edited with an Introduction and Notes by Kate Flint

When Mrs Ramsay tells her guests at her summer house on the Isle of Skye that they will be able to visit the nearby lighthouse the following day, little does she know that this trip will only be completed ten years later by her husband, and that a gulf of war, grief and loss will have opened in the meantime. As each character tries to readjust their memories and emotions with the shifts of time and reality, this long-delayed excursion will also prove to be a journey of self-discovery and fulfilment for them. Rich in symbolism, daring in style, elegiac in tone and encapsulating Virginia Woolf's ideas on life, art and human relationships, To the Lighthouse is a landmark of twentieth-century literature and one of the high points of early Modernism.

Every summer, the Ramsays visit their summer home on the beautiful Isle of Skye, surrounded by the excitement and chatter of family and friends, mirroring Virginia Woolf’s own joyful holidays of her youth. But as time passes, and in its wake the First World War, the transience of life becomes ever more apparent through the vignette of the thoughts and observations of the novel’s disparate cast. A landmark of high modernism and the most autobiographical of Virginia Woolf’s novels, To the Lighthouse explores themes of loss, class structure and the question of perception, in a hauntingly beautiful memorial to the lost but not forgotten. Chosen by TIME magazine as one of the 100 best English-language novels from 1923 to the present.

První román proslulé anglické spisovatelky vyšel v roce 1915 a Woolfová na něm pracovala v době, která pro ni byla neobvykle těžká, a kdy trpěla opakujícími se depresemi. Dílo si drží tradiční románovou podobu, ale již v sobě skrývá zárodky toho, co zdobí autorčinu vrcholnou tvorbu: inovativní vypravěčský styl, vhled do ženské psychiky, téma sexuality a smrti.V roce 1920 si Virginia Woolfová do deníku napsala: „Každý den od dvanácti do jedné si čtu Plavbu... je to taková směsice obrazů – místy jasně srozumitelných a vážných – místy hravých a povrchních – místy pravdivých jako slovo Boží – místy silných a plynoucích lehce a dokonale... Nad nedostatky se rdím studem, a pak věta, jasnozřivě vyjádřená představa mi tváře rozpálí úplně jiným pocitem. Vlastně musím tu mladou ženu obdivovat: jak odvážně se vrhá přes překážky – a psát tedy opravdu umí, to se jí musí nechat!“

Román Orlando (Orlando, č. 1994) z roku 1928 hrál pro autorku zcela zásadní roli, patrně je to i nejdelší milostný dopis, který kdy v literatuře vznikl, a Woolfová jej píše sobě samé. Orlando je téměř nesmrtelná bytost, na své cestě prochází dějinami od počátku sedmnáctého století, doby Alžběty I., až do století dvacátého, což dává autorce prostor vyjádřit se k postupným proměnám společenských mravů. Orlando se proměňuje z muže v ženu, aby jí už navždy zůstal. Autorka se v této impresionisticky laděné próze snaží o zachycení prchavého okamžiku a zároveň o propojení minulosti a přítomnosti a významně analyzuje otázky genderu, identity a tvořivosti. Snímek Orlando z roku 1992 je pokusem Sally Potterové přetlumočit do filmové řeči tento fantastický, fiktivní román a díky skvělým hereckým výkonům a esteticky neobyčejně vytříbené inscenaci je považován za vynikající literární adaptaci, jakkoliv nebylo snadné přenést na odlišné médium všechny vzájemně se překrývající časové roviny románové předlohy.Orlando je téměř nesmrtelná bytost, na své cestě prochází dějinami od počátku sedmnáctého století, doby Alžběty I., až do století dvacátého, což dává autorce prostor vyjádřit se k postupným proměnám společenských mravů.

Vůně mají mnoho tajemství. Objevit je znamená vyrazit na cestu kolem světa. Hlava, srdce, základ. To jsou tři stěžejní součásti parfému, které se rozvoní v různou chvíli. Každou z těchto složek může tvořit hned několik vůní a celý parfém pak i desítky esencí. Úspěšné, mámivé a afrodiziakální kombinace jsou proto dobře střeženým tajemstvím velkých luxusních značek a globálního parfémářského byznysu. Kde se však berou samotné vůně? Dominique Roques už přes třicet let dodává parfémářům po celém světě vonné esence z více než sto padesáti surovin a padesáti zemí. A teď se chce podělit o příběh vůní, míst i lidí, kteří za úspěšnými parfémy stojí, ať už to jsou sadaři, sběrači, pěstitelé, dřevorubci, byznysmeni, nebo dokonce mafiáni. Roques ukazuje, na jak složitém a křehkém systému parfémářský průmysl stojí, kolik práce a úsilí je za každou esencí a jak vše dělat udržitelně a odpovědně. A při svém vyprávění vezme čtenáře na dobrodružnou výpravu od Andalusie po Laos, od Venezuely po Somálijsko, od prastarých metod až po nejmodernější technologie.
