Book excerpt: This title is the fully illustrated edition of The Little Lady of the Big House by Jack London as it was originally published in The Cosmopolitan Magazine. It includes all the original 30 picture illustrations by Howard Christy.The Little Lady of the Big House is a psychological drama concerning a love triangle, Dick Forrest, his wife Paula and Evan Graham by Jack London who once said of this novel: "It is all sex from start to finish - in which no sexual adventure is actually achieved or comes within a million miles of being achieved, and in which, nevertheless, is all the guts of sex, coupled with strength".This a story that did upset readers in London's days for its gushing sexual imagery and its close portrayal of the tempting pull of adultery. Modern critics, on the other hand, deride its Victorian coyness and sentimentality, its unrealistic characters.

Book excerpt: The Little Lady of the Big House (1915) is a novel by American writer Jack London. The story concerns a love triangle. The protagonist, Dick Forrest, is a rancher with a poetic streak (his "acorn song" recalls London's play, "The Acorn Planters."). His wife, Paula, is a vivacious, athletic, and sexually self-aware woman (in one scene, she rides a stallion into a "swimming tank," emerging in "a white silken slip of a bathing suit that molded to her form like a marble-carven veiling of drapery.") Paula, like Charmian, is subject to insomnia; and Paula, like Charmian, is unable to bear children. Based on a reading of Charmian's diary, Stasz identifies the third vertex of the triangle, Evan Graham, with two real-life men named Laurie Smith and Allan Dunn. Even minor characters can be identified; Forrest's servant Oh My resembles London's valet Nakata. The long-bearded hobo philosopher Aaron Hancock resembles the real-lifelong-bearded hobo philosopher Frank Strawn-Hamilton, who was a long-term guest at the London ranch. Sculptor Haakan Frolich makes an appearance as "the sculptor Froelig" - and painter Xavier Martinez appears as the character "Xavier Martinez!"

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although Eleanor Porter’s Pollyanna is widely considered a classic of children’s literature. Pollyanna is a kind novel advocating an optimistic outlook, which is summarized in a famous quote ‘When you look for the bad in mankind expecting to find it, you surely will’. Pollyanna, a young orphan, is living with her stern aunt, who is taking care of her out of ‘sense of duty’. Under any circumstances Pollyanna prefers to see only their best side, taking joy in simplest things, she affects everyone around her.
