As a literary subject, Christmas has inspired everything from intimate domestic dramas, to fanciful flights of the imagination, and the full range of its expression is represented in this wonderfully engaging collection. Goblins frolic in the graveyard of an early Dickens tale; a love-struck ghost disrupts a country estate in Elizabeth Bowen''s ''Green Holly''; devils, witches, Cossacks and peasants cavort in Gogol''s ''The Night Before Christmas''. The plight of the less fortunate haunts Chekhov''s ''Vanka'' and Willa Cather''s ''The Burglar''s Christmas'', but takes a boisterously comic turn in Damon Runyon''s ''Dancing Dan''s Christmas'' and John Cheever''s ''Christmas is a Sad Season for the Poor''. From Nabokov''s intensely moving story of a father''s grief in ''Christmas'' to Truman Capote''s hilarious yet heartbreaking ''A Christmas Memory'', from Grace Paley''s Jewish girl in the Christmas pageant in ''The Loudest Voice'' to the dysfunctional family ski holiday in Richard Ford''s ''Creche'' - each of the stories is imbued with Christmas spirit of one kind or another, and all are richly and indelibly entertaining.

The Great Wood of Caledon – the historic native forest of Highland Scotland – has a reputation as potent and misleading as the wolves that ruled it. The popular image is of an impassable, sun-snuffing shroud, a Highlands-wide jungle infested by wolf, lynx, bear, beaver, wild white cattle, wild boar, and wilder painted men. Jim Crumley shines a light into the darker corners of the Great Wood, to re-evaluate some of the questionable elements of its reputation, and to assess the possibilities of its partial resurrection into something like a national forest. The book threads a path among relict strongholds of native woodland, beginning with a soliloquy by the Fortingall Yew, the one tree in Scotland that can say of the hey-day of the Great Wood 5,000 years ago: ''I was there.'' The journey is enriched by vivid wildlife encounters, a passionate and poetic account that binds the slow dereliction of the past to an optimistic future.

Utečte na slnečné talianske pobrežie Amalfi, ponorte sa do tyrkysových morských vĺn a zamilujte sa do romantického príbehu z pera Julie Caplinovej! Lia Bathurst vždy snívala o úteku na biele piesočnaté pláže a o tyrkysovo modrom mori na pobreží Amalfi – lenže tento sen nezahŕňal stretnutie s jej skutočným otcom. Tým, o ktorom ešte pred niekoľkými týždňami vôbec nevedela. A predsa tu zrazu stojí pred bránami nádhernej ružovej vily, do ktorej jej zamietol prístup neznesiteľný – a zároveň neskutočne príťažlivý – Raphael Knight, obchodný manažér jej otca. Keď stará čiernobiela fotografia dokáže, že Liino tvrdenie je pravdivé, Raph je odhodlaný uistiť sa, že táto cudzinka s dlhými karamelovými vlasmi a nákazlivým úsmevom nemá postranné úmysly. Aj keby to znamenalo, že ju nespustí z dohľadu. Na pobreží Amalfi obsypanom citrónovníkmi začína byť horúco, a nie je to spôsobené len počasím...

Tentoraz vás zavedie do romantického vinárstva vo Francúzsku, kde zistíte, že zatiaľ čo pre jedného je láska primálo, pre druhého môže znamenať celý svet. Čarovné francúzske vinice v oblasti Champagne sú ako stvorené pre romantický príbeh. Presvedčí sa o tom aj svadobná koordinátorka Hattie, ktorá čerstvo unikla z chladného, prázdneho a nezáživného vzťahu. Pôvodne prišla do château Saint Martin zabudnúť na všetky problémy a pripraviť svadbu pre svoju sesternicu, no stojí ju to až príliš veľa úsilia. Hlavne keď jej pozornosť rozptyľuje príťažlivý a sebavedomý vinár Luc. Podnikajú spolu výlety do okolia a vychutnávajú si miestne kulinárske delikatesy. Hattie zrazu zisťuje, že či už za to môžu bublinky, alebo Lucovo kúzlo, zrejme je až po uši zamilovaná. A to je niečo, s čím vôbec nepočítala...
