Title Information David Herbert Lawrence was born into a mining family in Nottinghamshire in 1885. He created his finest work shortly after the finish of the First World War. Two of the themes in his writing are the gradual disintegration of the class system and the customs and sexual mores of people across class divisions. What made Lawrence unusual was the combination of this subject matter with the style of his direct, modern prose. He was a great believer in instinct and intuition and this has...

Title Information The phrase ‘this book will change your life’ has become one of the clichés of the publishing world but ‘Martin Eden’ is certainly a novel that merits that observation. Set in turn of the century San Francisco, Jack London’s semi-autobiographical narrative tells of working class sailor Eden’s struggle to elevate himself to a level of society wherein, he believes, resides the intellect and culture he craves. One of the reasons for this endeavour is Ruth Morse, with whom he has fallen...

Arguably the most well-known of all Scandinavian crime writers, Henning Mankell published his first book, Bergsprängaren (The Rock Blast) in 1973. In the same year he went to Africa for the first time and has divided his time between Africa and Sweden ever since. This has been reflected in his writing which is similarly split between the two areas.

Title Information The ‘sketches’ in this volume are more the substance and length of short stories illustrating the development of the tools of the Masters trade: farce, parody, irony, black humour and wonderful one liners which unerringly hit the mark. The ensuing narrative, however, brings the listener bumpily back to earth with a reminder of the mean and often tragic lives that were being endured in the busy, uncaring metropolis. The stories are in the following order and entitled; The Dancing...

A good introduction to some classic children's fiction, but be aware that most of the books are abridged - some by sensitive cutting out of lines without losing meaning, but some through the loss of whole chapters. Tony Robinson's reading of The Jungle Book is excellent but covers only the first three stories. Geofrrey Palmer reading A Christmas Carol is a delight and on its own justifies four stars at least!
