The publishers of Cleave`s new novel don`t want to spoil the story by revealing too much about it. They will say that the beach scene is brutal, and that it braids the fates of a 16-year-old Nigerian orphan and a well-off British couple.
The two American classics here together in one volume, "Little Men" and "Jo`s Boys", are worthy sequels to "Little Women", one of the best-loved children`s stories of all time, and its continuation, "Good Wives". In "Little Men", Louisa May Alcott takes up the story of the everyday dramas and exploits of the naughty but easy-going boys at Plumfield, now a boarding-school run by Professor Bhaer and his lovable madcap wife Jo, the most fiery and free-spirited of the four March sisters. "Jo`s Boys" revisits the one-time members of that `wilderness of boys` ten years later when they are making their ways in the world with varying degrees of triumph and disaster.

Little Women is the delightful story of the four March girls and their approach towards womanhood. Meg, the eldest and most beautiful, shrugs off her vanity and social ambition, discovering fulfilment in romantic love. Boyish Jo on the other hand, with her contempt of all "lovering", turns impetuously towards writing for solace. Gentle Beth rejects worldly interests, preferring to devote her life to her family, to the joy of music and to timidly aiding all who suffer in life. Amy, the youngest and most imperfect of the March girls, continually tries to overcome her selfishness and girlish pretensions, though she has a hard task before her. The progress of these four "little women" is narrated along the lines of Bunyan`s pilgrim, and we...

Charles Dickens was an English writer and social critic. A masterly evocation of the state and psychology of imprisonment, Little Dorrit is one of the supreme works of Dickens`s maturity. When Arthur Clennam returns to England after many years abroad, he takes a kindly interest in Amy Dorrit, his mother`s seamstress, and in the affairs of Amy`s father, William Dorrit, a man of shabby grandeur, long imprisoned for debt in Marshalsea prison. As Arthur soon discovers, the dark shadow of the prison stretches far beyond its walls to affect the lives of many, from the kindly Mr Panks, the reluctant rent-collector of Bleeding Heart Yard, and the tipsily garrulous Flora Finching, to Merdle, an unscrupulous financier, and the bureaucratic...

This work tells the true story of a death foretold. On December 7th 2006, in a Highgate Cemetery drenched with London rain, a Russian was buried within a stone`s throw of the grave of Karl Marx. He was Alexander Litvinenko, Sasha to his friends, a boy from the deep Russian provinces who rose through the ranks of the world`s most feared security service. Litvinenko was the man who denounced murder and corruption in the Russian government, fled from the wrath of the Kremlin, came to London and took the shilling of Moscow`s avowed he was a martyr, condemned by foes unknown to an agonised death in a hospital bed thousands of miles from home. Martin Sixsmith draws on his long experience as the BBC`s Moscow correspondent, and contact with the...

A gruesome murder and an explosive mystery: an exiled former KGB agent poisoned in the very heart of London. Who were the men who laced Alexander Litvinenko`s tea with enough radioactive polonium to gnaw away his internal organs and condemn him to days of unbearable agony in the terrible knowledge that death was inevitable? Within hours of his burial in a lead-lined coffin, the Litvinenko case had plunged Russia and the West into the sort of political stand-off unseen since the Cold War. But many things in the Litvinenko file are not what they seem. In this vivid and thrilling account Martin Sixsmith, former Moscow correspondent for the BBC, uses his unique access to voices in both of the warring camps to uncover the brutal truth about...
