Wavelength is a course for adults and young adults. It combines a strong grammar syllabus with a contemporary approach to build confidence and motivate students.

Walter Scott (1771-1832) was a Scottish historical novelist, poet, and playwright. Although he was an advocate and legal administrator by profession, Scott is most famous for his great literary works and activities in the Royal Highland Society. "Waverley; Or, Tis Sixty Years Since" is a historical novel, the author`s first work of prose also considered his most popular historical novel. It takes place during the uprising of the Jacobite uprising of 1745, supporters of the feudal dynasty of the Stuarts against bourgeois England. The book unfolds a picture of the recent past, which retained a strong connection with Walter Scott`s present when it was still possible to meet witnesses of those events.

`I am writing to a rhythm and not to a plot`, Virginia Woolf stated of her eighth novel, "The Waves". Widely regarded as one of her greatest and most original works, it conveys the rhythms of life in synchrony with the cycle of nature and the passage of time. Six children - Bernard, Susan, Rhoda, Neville, Jinny and Louis - meet in a garden close to the sea, their voices sounding over the constant echo of the waves that roll back and forth from the shore. The subsequent continuity of these six main characters, as they develop from childhood to maturity and follow different passions and ambitions, is interspersed with interludes from the timeless and unifying chorus of pure stream-of-consciousness style, Woolf presents a cross-section of...

The Waves traces the lives and interactions of seven friends in an exploratory and sensuous narrative. The Waves was conceived and written during a highly political phase in Woolfs career, when she was speaking on issues of gender and of class. This was also the period when her love affair with Vita Sackville-West was at its most intense. The work is often described as if it were the product of a secluded, disembodied sensibility. Yet its writing is supremely engaged and engaging, providing an experience which the reader is unlikely to forget.

Hidden beneath the floorboards in a house he`s remodeling, Christopher Flynn discovers something very tempting-and troubling. Summoning every bit of maturity and every lesson he`s learned the hard way, Chris leaves what he found where he found it and tells his job partner to forget it, too. Knowing trouble when he sees it-and walking the other way-is a habit Chris is still learning. Chris`s father, Thomas Flynn, runs the family business where Chris and his friends have found work. Thomas is just getting comfortable with the idea that his son is grown, working, and on the right path at last. Then one day Chris doesn`t show up for work-and his father knows deep in his bones that danger has found him. Although he wishes it weren`t so, he...
