This is a dramatic, moving depiction of social defiance and social deference, of passion and human frailty. Set in the harsh Puritan community of seventeenth-century Boston, this tale of an adulterous entanglement that results in an illegitimate birth reveals Nathaniel Hawthorne's concerns with the tension between the public and the private selves. Publicly disgraced and ostracized, Hester Prynne draws on her inner strength and certainty of spirit to emerge as the first true heroine of American fiction. Arthur Dimmesdale stands as a classic study of a self divided; trapped by the rules of society, he suppresses his passion and disavows his lover, Hester, and their daughter, Pearl.

Introduction and Notes by Henry Claridge, Senior Lecturer, School of English, University of Kent at Canterbury. This is a troubling story of crime, sin, guilt, punishment and expiation, set in the rigid moral climate of 17th-century New England. The young mother of an illegitimate child confronts her Puritan judges. However, it is not so much her harsh sentence, but the cruelties of slowly exposed guilt as her lover is revealed, that hold the reader enthralled all the way to the book's poignant climax.

In seventeenth-century Boston, Hester Prynne shoulders the scorn of her fellow Puritan townsfolk for bearing a child out of wedlock. For her refusal to name the father of her daughter Pearl, Hester is made to wear a scarlet "A" stitched conspicuously upon her dress. But though she bears the stigma of the shame her peers would confer upon her, others feel the guilt for her transgression more acutely—notably the pious Reverend Arthur Dimmesdale, the confessor with whom Hester and Pearl's destinies are intimately bound up. First published in 1850, Nathaniel Hawthorne's historical study of guilt and sin has since been lauded as the most important work of fiction by its distinguished author, and a landmark of American literature. This volume is one of Barnes & Noble's Collectible Editions classics. Each volume features authoritative texts by the world's greatest authors in an exquisitely designed foil-stamped binding, with distinctive colored edging and an attractive ribbon bookmark. Decorative, durable, and collectible, these books offer hours of pleasure to readers young and old and are an indispensable cornerstone for any home library.

Franz Kafka wrote this letter to his father, Hermann Kafka, in November 1919. Max Brod, Kafka’s literary executor, relates that Kafka actually gave the letter to his mother to hand to his father, hoping it might renew a relationship that had lost itself in tension and frustration on both sides. But Kafka’s probing of the deep flaw in their relationship spared neither his father nor himself. He could not help seeing the failure of communication between father and son as another moment in the larger existential predicament depicted in so much of his work. Probably realizing the futility of her son’s gesture, Julie Kafka did not deliver the letter but instead returned it to its author.

Antoine de Saint-Exupery's timeless tale, reissued in a beautiful clothbound edition designed by Coralie Bickford-Smith. Antoine de Saint-Exupery first published The Little Prince in 1943, only a year before his plane vanished over the Mediterranean during a reconnaissance mission. Nearly eighty years later, this fable of love and loneliness has lost none of its power. The narrator is a downed pilot in the Sahara Desert, frantically trying to repair his wrecked plane. His efforts are interrupted one day by the apparition of a little prince, who asks him to draw a sheep. "In the face of an overpowering mystery, you don't dare disobey," the narrator recalls. "Absurd as it seemed, a thousand miles from all inhabited regions and in danger of death, I took a scrap of paper and a pen out of my pocket." And so begins their dialogue, which stretches the narrator's imagination in all sorts of surprising, childlike directions.

Moby Dick není pouhým výplodem spisovatelské fantazie. Hermana Melvilla inspirovala k napsání románu Bílá velryba skutečná událost: v roce 1821 do velrybářské lodi Essex narazil uprostřed Pacifiku obrovský vorvaň a potopil ji. Následoval příběh, který si lze jen těžko představit. Dvacet námořníků se z obav před lidojedy, na které by mohli narazit na tichomořských ostrovech, vydalo ve třech křehkých velrybářských člunech na téměř tři tisíce mil dlouhou plavbu k jihoamerickému pobřeží. Po třech měsících útrap jich zůstalo naživu jen osm a nakonec museli jíst těla svých mrtvých druhů, aby přežili. Autor s dokumentární přesností a románovou poutavostí vypráví neuvěřitelný příběh o hranicích lidských možností, odvaze a víře, naději a osudových rozhodnutích, historicky zasazený do období rozmachu velrybářství a největší slávy velrybářského ostrova Nantucket.

Už dlouho víme, co se s naší planetou děje. Toto je příběh o tom, proč nic neděláme.Během osmdesátých let hrstka vědců a politiků riskovala vlastní kariéry, aby v zoufalství varovala před hrozbou, kterou na sebe svět přivolává rostoucí spotřebou fosilních paliv. Jejich snaha měla kromě vzniku mezinárodních panelů a prvních pokusů o globální spolupráci na snížení uhlíkových emisí ještě jeden paradoxní důsledek: koordinovaný lobbing těžařských a energetických společností, které popírají podíl lidské civilizace na klimatických změnách. Co v osmdesátých letech znělo jako jasný úkol, to se posléze proměnilo v ideologické bojiště, na němž má vědecký fakt stejnou váhu jako politický názor.Kniha Jak ztratit Zemi reportážně mapuje, jak vznikl vědecký konsenzus ohledně dopadu lidské aktivity na klima a jak tragický osud měla následná politická řešení. Kniha sice líčí historický vývoj — je však zásadní především pro ten budoucí.

Vaclav Havel's remarkable and rousing essay on the tyranny of apathy, with a new introduction by Timothy Snyder Cowed by life under Communist Party rule, a greengrocer hangs a placard in their shop window: Workers of the world, unite! Is it a sign of the grocer's unerring ideology? Or a symbol of the lies we perform to protect ourselves? Written in 1978, Vaclav Havel's meditation on political dissent - the rituals of its suppression, and the sparks that re-ignite it - would prove the guiding manifesto for uniting Solidarity movements across the Soviet Union. A portrait of activism in the face of falsehood and intimidation, The Power of the Powerless remains a rousing call against the allure of apathy. 'Havel's diagnosis of political pathologies has a special resonance in the age of Trump' Pankaj Mishra
