Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mystery of Edwin Drood, Reprinted Pieces, and Other Stories She blows at the pipe as she speaks, and, occasionally bubbling at it, inhales much of its contents. Oh me, oh me, my lungs is weak, my lungs is bad! It's nearly ready for ye, deary. Ah, poor me, poor me, my poor hand shakes like to drop off I see ye coming to, and I ses to my poor self, I'll have another ready for him, and he'll bear in mind the market price of opium, and pay according.' Oh my poor head! I makes my pipes of old penny ink - bottles, ye see, deary - this is one - and I fits in a mouth piece this way, and I takes my mixter out of this thimble with this little horn spoon and so I fills, deary. Ah, my poor nerves! I got Heavens-hard drunk for sixteen year afore I took to this; but this don't hurt me, not to speak of. And it takes away the hunger as well as wittles, deary. She hands him the nearly-emptied pipe, and sinks back, turning over on her face. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charles Dickens's final, unfinished novel, and one that has puzzled readers and inspired writers since its publication, The Mystery of Edwin Drood is edited with an introduction by David Paroissien in Penguin Classics. Edwin Drood is contracted to marry orphan Rosa Bud when he comes of age, but when they find that duty has gradually replaced affection, they agree to break off the engagement. Shortly afterwards, in the middle of a storm on Christmas Eve, Edwin disappears, leaving nothing behind but some personal belongings and the suspicion that his jealous uncle John Jasper, madly in love with Rosa, is the killer. And beyond this presumed crime there are further intrigues: the dark opium dens of the sleepy cathedral town of Cloisterham, and the sinister double life of Choirmaster Jasper, whose drug-fuelled fantasy life belies his respectable appearance. Dickens died before completing The Mystery of Edwin Drood, leaving its tantalising mystery unsolved and encouraging successive generations of readers to turn detective.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mystery of Edwin Drood, Vol. 2 For some wise purpose, no doubt, the Creator saw fit to place upon the earth a class of people who regard every thing they do or say as perfectly right and proper, and every thing other folks do or say as all wrong. They have a su preme Opinion of their own ideas, and a poor opinion of other people's. Such persons always appear bareheaded in the argumentative field, and have no difficulty in finding a hat which will fit them nicely, even though it may not be SO pleas ant to wear. It would be supposed, however, that, after selecting the hat and putting it on voluntarily, they would be content to wear it, or discard it, and say nothing; but, in stead, they go howling about, disgusted with themselves, 'and making everybody else disgusted with them. In Mr. Dickens' Preface to this book, which was published as an extract, will be found, figuratively speaking, two hats, - 0ne labeled owl-like wisdom, and the other ignorant bigots, and it was highly edifying to Observe with what ease the above mentioned class of individuals discovered that those hats would fit them. This fact leads me to believe that there is a class of people in the world who will admit, - whatever they think of the other characters in this work, - that the character of Mr. Sapsea is not overdrawn. To give the reader some idea of the ridiculous statements that were made concerning the authorship of this work, and which, - notwithstanding they were far more unreasonable than the true statement which affirmed this book to be the pro duction of a spirit-pen, - were accepted as facts by quite a number of persons, I will cite one or two of them in this Preface.
