On a June morning in 1923, Clarissa Dalloway, the glittering wife of a Member of Parliament, is preparing for a grand party that evening. As she walks through London, buying flowers, observing life, her thoughts are in the past, and she remembers the time when she was as young as her own daughter Elizabeth; her romance with Peter Walsh, now recently returned from India; and the friends of her youth.

Virginia Woolf`s singular technique in `Mrs. Dalloway` heralds a break with the traditional novel form and reflects a genuine humanity and a concern with the experiences that both enrich and stultify existence. Society hostess, Clarissa Dalloway is giving a party. Her thoughts and sensations on that one day, and the interior monologues of others whose lives are interwoven with hers gradually reveal the characters of the central protagonists. Clarissa`s life is touched by tragedy as the events in her day run parallel to those in the day of Septimus Warren Smith. The delicate artistry and lyrical prose of Woolf`s fourth novel have established her as a writer of profound talent.

Mrs. Dalloway is a novel by Virginia Woolf that details a day in the life of Clarissa Dalloway, a fictional high-society woman in post-World War I England. It is one of Woolf s best-known novels. Created from two short stories, Mrs Dalloway in Bond Street and the unfinished The Prime Minister, the novel addresses Clarissa`s preparations for a party she will host that evening. Mrs, Dalloway is linguistically inventive, but the novel also has an enormous amount to say about its characters. Woolf handles their situations with dignity and respect.

This is a Jeeves and Wooster novel. Just as Bertie Wooster is a member of the Drones Club, Jeeves has a club of his own, the Junior Ganymede, exclusively for butlers and gentlemen`s gentlemen. In its inner sanctum is kept the "Book of Revelations", where the less than perfect habits of their employers are lovingly recorded. The book is, of course, pure dynamite. So what happens when it disappears into potentially hostile hands? Tossed about in the resulting whirlwind you`ll find lots of Wodehouse`s favourite characters - and a welcome return to Market Snodsbury, in the middle of one of the most chaotic elections of modern times. Формат: 13 см x 19,5 см.

`Much Ado About Nothing` is unusual among Shakespeare`s plays in that it was written almost entirely in prose. It is a story of the reluctant love and sexual confrontation between Beatrice and Benedick and of the classical love between Claudio and Hero. Full of dramatic speed and high humour, `Much Ado About Nothing` is a mature comedy with a record of consistent theatrical success.
